That comes back to my suspicion regarding the conflicting roles that a property owner-landlord has. Such individuals continuously want the flexibility of the asset sale, but there are also the responsibilities of being a landlord. There is a conflict there. I appreciate it but, particularly, the points made on the RTB were not lost on me. I would say that each of these organisations probably have leases on offices that they rent. Some might be by way of a licence but they will accrue tenants' rights as businesses. The attempts were to try and introduce certainty for residential tenants that was there for many years for business tenants. That is where we want to get to.
