I have one final question on the methodology just so that I am clear. Is it the case that the CSO looked at the RTB registration data - the total registration - and at the characteristics of properties that were registered, such as whether they were more likely to be urban than rural and more likely to be smaller or terraced than semi-detached, bearing in mind that the latter, obviously, would have higher rents? Did the CSO look at the overall characteristics of properties that were registered and that assessment allowed it to divide the different sets? Have I got that right in terms of the methodology?
