I am sorry to cut across but the statistics should show areas and where the main issues lie within the rental property. There are always people who float but we also have people who have a five-year plan. They come to Dublin or wherever and they have a future plan. I have seen those young couples come to Dublin with their future plan and they want to move back down. There are sectors within the rental industry that are good and there are sectors that are falling between the cracks. We need to look after the ones that are falling asunder, where there are poor properties. There have to be statistics.
