I heard that but the Minister has a target and this is a reasonable question. The Minister has a target for affordable purchase homes this year. He allocated money in the budget and in the Revised Estimate but two thirds of that money is now being moved somewhere else. It is completely legitimate that the Minister is going to spend it in a different way but it does suggest to me that he is going to miss his affordable purchase targets by two thirds, if he is taking two thirds of the money out.
