I want to ensure I am clear on this. I know national policy objectives Nos. 8 and 9 have not changed and that 40% of the new homes are to be within the built-up footprint of existing settlements. Objectives Nos. 8 and 9 are separate. Objective No. 8 refers to delivering 50% of all new homes that are targeted in the five cities and suburbs of Dublin and the others, but not all of that 50% will be in the 40% under objective No. 7. Is that correct? Some of them will constitute the 40% and some of them will be outside the 40%.
