I will move on to the €337 million allocated in respect of delivering new-build local authority homes this year. That money is not now going to be spent on this endeavour. Some €237 million is being transferred out, and €100 million is going to be used to pay down loans. As a result of this money not being spent on new-build local authority homes, how many local authority homes will leave us short of? I am asking for a ballpark figure in the context of the Revised Estimates.
