That sounds fair. I saw Dr. Byrne nodding in agreement with some of that on the data collection methods and the benefits of what it is used for.
I will now turn to the CSO. The question asked was: are you a local authority tenant; voluntary community housing co-operative or private rental. Was it able to correlate between how many local authority tenancies there are and how many people responded that they were local authority tenancies? Is there any confusion for AHB tenants, referred by the local authority, that they might say they are a local authority tenant even though they are living in AHB accommodation? Is there good correlation between those who answered that they were local authority tenants and how many local authority tenancies there are in the country?
