In relation to section 29, which again I support, this is just an extension until 2025. I presume it will be extended for many years to come. From a policy point of view, has the Minister considered looking at the accelerated allowances for other types of capital investment, particularly in relation to modern methods of construction, MMC, in housing to try to give that the boost it needs?

This is not only from a housing point of view. It is also from a less intensive carbon-type of construction as well as a more efficient point of view. Has that been looked at or would it be considered? I raise it because it should be considered.
