I thank the Minister, but I am not asking him to give me the exact figure in respect of final delivery. In the context of these Revised Estimates, I am asking what will be the impact of the €227 million being taken out of the local authority new-build homes heading and the €100 million being used to pay down loans. I am asking about the approximate number of homes we will be down as a result of this €337 million that was initially supposed to be spent on building those homes not being spent. I am not asking for a final figure for delivery; I am just asking what the impact will be of removing this €337 million allocated under this heading that was meant to be spent on building homes.
