I have one final question. There is already a planning exemption in place, a provision whereby one can short-term let, or provide bed and breakfast accommodation in, up to four rooms in one's own home without the need for planning permission. How many of the members of the ITIC does that provision cover? How many are rendered secure under that provision in the context of this impending legislation? It may be a difficult calculation or assumption to make, but how many are left swinging in the wind in terms of the impending changes to the planning legislation? How many are endangered?
