I have just realised that Mr. Armstrong is in the building regulation element of this issue. I had a lot of questions about targets, which the witness may actually have been briefed on. If I can ask the questions about the housing targets, hopefully his colleagues have made sure he is armed with all the facts.

The opening statement stated that for local authority housing, the target is for 36,500 homes, to be at a B2 energy rating by 2030. Is that correct? Is there a target for 2025? I know the overall Government target was 500,000 but there is a 2025 target of 125,000. Is there a similar 2025 target for the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage?
