Knowledge of the toolbox in one thing, but we also need local authorities to have ambition. Since they have spent so much time not being in this space I can appreciate where their ambition might be limited, but the Department's role is to set that ambition. Do the officials believe there is the willingness in local authorities to develop affordable purchase in particular, which is a new model for them they will need to get their head around?
