My final question is on the initial figures of the properties that we are expecting to become available to long-term housing from the establishment of this register. There is a significant need in rural areas. Mr. Sheridan talked about an urban focus initially, but there is a housing need across all of the country. Certainly, Mayo is no different. I would ask that attention or focus would also be placed on rural areas and they be taken in a staged process.
