Mr. Coleman covered some of the issues I was going to ask about modular housing. I think he said a player the size of the LDA is comparable to the largest housing construction companies that are in the Irish market at the moment.

One of the things we were trying to address in a report we did on low-carbon construction was to set a target for the amount of housing that would be constructed with that type of technology. In light of that signal to industry that this is the direction it wants to go, have targets been set for the LDA? Does trying to build using low-carbon technology come across its design? Mr. Coleman briefly referred to this earlier.
