I have two supplementary questions before I go to Simon. I know that in a number of locations in Dublin, additional beds have been put into rooms that are already being shared. I am not criticising that decision. One has to provide accommodation for people. How widespread is that to increase the number of beds in particular facilities?

Regarding move-on accommodation, on one hand, we are now seeing less private rental through homeless HAP. The witnesses are indicating that the enhanced leasing take-up in Dublin has been weak. Have there been discussions or should there be a discussion about replicating what the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth and the OPW have done to use emergency procurement and planning powers and new building technologies to try to fast-track high-quality, permanent modular homes to provide that additional supply? When I say modular homes, I mean above the existing social housing targets. Is that really where we should be going?
