Mr. Kevin McCarthy:
We have agreement from the Government now on a new strategy on international protection which aims to reduce the reliance on private and commercial providers over time and commits, as I said at the outset, to 14,000 State-owned beds by 2028. There are a number of strands to that in terms of going to market for turnkey properties, acquiring properties and developing on State-owned land. I might ask my colleague to say a little bit more about that.
