Obviously, we are in a situation where we have to help people who are genuinely fleeing war. However, if the units are located on sites and the layout is as per local authority specification, design and all of that, have there been discussions with local authorities in respect of after use? There is a substantial cost involved in delivering each unit. It is close to the cost of a new build. I accept that Mr. O'Connor has said about there being a 60-year lifespan for each unit. Have there been discussions with local authorities on after use?
