I will move on. I want to pick up a little on the AHBs issue. We had a long discussion last week of the process whereby we will not own the asset towards the end of the process in respect of AHBs. We also talked about the level of public oversight in AHBs' decision-making. Representatives from the Housing Agency described to us that there will be an AHB group in every local authority. Will the officials very quickly outline what that involves? This group will make decisions around what type of housing AHBs are required to provide.
