Again, I agree wholeheartedly, and it is not too dissimilar to the conversation we had earlier about cultural space. All of this is important. Good planning should lead to good outcomes and well-being for people. It should not be about the development of units. It has to be about place-making and creative and safe spaces for people of all ages. That includes how we design our public spaces in terms of people's well-being. In that regard we have given a commitment that we will look at how we might best reflect that. I agree with the members' points on this.
