Can I make a suggestion here? We will give Graham Doyle, Secretary General of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and his staff the opportunity to prepare this for us. We have the breakdown for the 26 counties and the 31 local authorities. We want it broken down under those headings: enhanced lease, turnkey, AHBs and direct builds. The figure for direct builds by local authorities is 166. Can I suggest, in anticipation of the fact that we may decide on a new work programme, and I hope we do, that we bring in the Department in the next few months to give it the opportunity to break down that figure per local authority? In other words, in County Kildare, how many of those were leased long term? How many are turnkeys, how many are AHBs and how many are direct builds? Would that help?
