Targets for the period of the plan are published within it. It is expected that all of these homes will be delivered. It is my absolute desire that this happens. Where local authorities do not meet targets, if there is a particular shortfall that does not relate to, for example, a project not being delivered but to another difficulty, we engage directly with those local authorities. I am thankful that some local authorities are going to exceed their targets. We want that to happen because we need more. We all know of the pressures on housing, particularly on the social and affordable housing side.
