Ms Byrne mentioned short-term needs. That is also interesting. There is also the HMD 1 form in terms of housing. At the moment I find it does very little. I deal with constituents every day on housing, because the situation is so acute. It obviously assists, but the way things are at the moment it cannot guarantee anything in any space of time. Is there anything specific needed to address housing? I know Ms McDonnell Byrne mentioned adaptation grants and things like that. However, Ms Byrne was talking more about people who are already in emergency accommodation.
