I thank the Chair. I also thank the Minister for referring to the issue I brought to his attention about the part-time option for study. It is very important that we create the pathways for anyone who wants to go back to education to have the facility to do so. That was a real barrier so I will be following those developments with some interest.

I have three questions I wish to put to the Minister. Other contributors talked previously about the purpose-built student accommodation and I believe the Minister said that in the last quarter, over 48,000 beds were now available. What percentage of those beds are owned privately by investment funds?
