In fairness, Mr. Parlon has been straight about the difficulties with costs, inflation, tendering and planning. I think he meant it in the best sense when he said we should never waste a crisis. Obviously, we have a housing crisis and have had it for some time. We have the particular humanitarian Ukrainian crisis which is also a housing crisis here. Regarding never wasting a crisis, hopefully this is where we can make up for some of the State's failings. Mr. Parlon talked about modular housing. Obviously, the CIF has done considerable due diligence on supply chains and all the rest of it. What can be done and what can be done faster? How can we deal with it? The pandemic showed us the State can do some heavy lifting when it needs to and when the pressure is on. We are in a crisis situation. While we are not in the same situation that people in Mariupol are, this needs more time, planning, wartime financing etc.

Perhaps Mr. Parlon might be able to deal with that crisis in the next two minutes.
