With the indulgence of the Chair, could the same point be made in respect of other changes in policy? We teased this out with the Department. For example, when the updated design standards for apartments were published in 2018, including, for example, for the first time, co-living and build to rent, they obviously had an impact on land values. We saw that then in purchase prices. There is a five-year review. Is that enough to capture the outworking of what could be other policy changes by Government, regional authority or local authority that could impact land values?
