I thank our guests for coming in. The point that was just made emphasises the reference in the opening statement to the importance of having in-house valuation skills and teams trying to do all those valuations instead of being reliant on external valuers, who may be busy doing other things, and trying to find people who do not have conflicts in the process and all of that. The point has been made very well. This legislation would assist with that and with Part V delivery. That is a good point.

In consideration of UDZs, why have SDZs not been used to any great extent? What are the potential advantages of UDZs, as outlined in the legislation?
