Okay. In the case of a tenantin situacquisition by a local authority or AHB, the tenant is not buying the property. The offer to purchase the property comes from the local authority or the AHB to the estate agent or the landlord. Explain to me as clearly as possible what it means if the tenant does not have the money to buy the property, but they engage with the tenant in situ scheme? Are we saying in that case, it is the tenant who makes the offer on behalf of the local authority?
