I understand that, but could that be something the RTB does? One of the things all of us across the board on this committee were agreed upon was the introduction of the eviction ban and that there was a real need to inform local authorities in this regard where, for example, somebody might be going into homelessness, because the local authorities might only be told about it when the person would make contact with them. Is that something the RTB could do as a matter of course, where it could take note where a tenancy is a State-supported one and inform the appropriate local authority, particularly if there is a risk of homelessness from that? Is that something the RTB could do?
