Given that we do not have any high-profile cases in terms of timber frame construction going wrong in the last ten or 15 years, I wonder if it is being documented. Are we in a situation where we can say there were very serious mistakes in 2004 and 2005 but since then we have had successful, well-built timber frame housing? Given that, we could look at greater heights with more confidence. That is just a comment.

My next question about modular homes is for Mr. O'Connor. What more can be done to help resolve the challenges on the sites so we can deliver more homes with off-site construction? Mr. O'Connor referred in his presentation to sites for homes that are being delivered for the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth. Does he have any insight into delivery for the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage or for the local authorities, of social housing beyond the ask for the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth? Where is that delivery or what is the timeline on it?
