Ms Caroline Timmons:

We see that lead-in time is a result of needing to get the works in and done. There is an assessment at the end by the local authority so they have to go back out for that but then the application for drawdown can be put in. We do not think there is a particular difficulty. The local authorities are getting good help from the Housing Agency in terms of getting technical expertise out to survey the properties, so that seems to be working quite well at the moment. The local authorities are taking less than eight weeks to get all the approvals done so far, so we just need to keep that momentum up now.
