There are a few associated issues with delivery and maintenance of stock, if I could just diverge slightly. One of the advantages that the AHB sector would see in terms of cost rental, in particular, is that there is a sinking fund built into the calculations for the units for maintenance over a period of 30 or 40 years. Obviously, such a maintenance sinking fund does not exist in local authority stock, which is funded through the Local Government Fund and decisions from councillors as well. In terms of repair and maintenance of stock, what is the average turnaround for local authority stock from the point at which a unit becomes vacant to being tenanted again?
