As practitioners, Ms Hayes was indicating that she might have a figure. She was being general in her comments in stating that it might be 10% to 20% of landlords who were not be proceeding with the scheme. Is that the experience of Simon and Threshold?

My second question is on the roadblocks which were flagged at the beginning, such as domestic violence cases where people have an interest in the family home but are not able to return to it, or the mismatch of house sizes. Is it the experience of the witnesses that those issues are being ironed out at the local level or are there still blocks to the tenant in situscheme?
