Mr. John Coleman:

We effectively are a State developer, but we try not to compete with the private sector. We try not to displace the private sector. The private sector is not delivering apartments off its own bat at the moment.

That is where the LDA has stepped up in a big way, to be able to facilitate them to deliver but also to deliver directly ourselves.

Regarding the private housing element, there are very large sites that could have 4,000 or 5,000 homes developed on them. Clearly, on sites of that scale, there will be some element of private housing. We do not compete with the private sector head-on. Our interventions are mainly where the market has failed, and that is particularly around apartment development.
