To be fair to the local authorities, that means they are very limited in the number of tenants they can entertain, even if we are talking about closing a sale next year, because they do not know the exact amount they are going to be funded. The minute tenants hear that they might be in for the tenant in situ scheme, it gives them hope. They are absolutely relying on it. To be fair, the local authorities have to be careful about how they entertain such requests.
