I thank Ms Stapleton very much for that update. May I focus specifically on the extent of top-up payments that HAP tenants must make to landlords? At this point in time, early in 2022, all Deputies will say the number of calls to their offices from tenants who have been subjected to top-up payments associated with increased rents has been enormous.

What mechanisms are in place within the Department to record the extent of top-up payments that HAP tenants have to make to landlords? Is there is a reporting mechanism in that regard?
