On the practicalities of that, if we are going to introduce another new definition of a long-term lease, it could cause complications in getting across what is a very positive proposal and initiative from the Society of St Vincent de Paul. It would probably make sense that it would align with the refurbishment grant where, correct me if I am wrong, a property has to be leased out for a minimum of five years after the work has been carried out. That would probably be the approach to take in that regard rather than trying to split hairs.
