Do we have a target for how many we expect to be delivered this year across the various schemes? Again, it goes back to the conversation around whether or not there is progress. The only way we can measure progress over a period of time is the actual number of units through each scheme that are brought back into use each year. One of the very frustrating things for many of us is the fact that it is very hard to track this data. From the last question-and-answer session we had to now, I have gone through the vacant homes strategy, the Department's website and the Housing for All website and nowhere is there any place where you can track what has been delivered to date and what the targets are. Little bits of that information are scattered everywhere so if members of this committee, who are used to this information and these websites, find it very difficult to track progress or not, the general public and others will find it difficult as well. How many units do we expect will be returned to use this year through the various vacant and derelict activation programmes?
