Mr. David Kelly:
I might come in briefly on that point. The RTB has put a lot of focus on the governance of IT systems. The board has a subcommittee looking specifically at IT. The Department’s head of IT is represented on that committee so we are giving it very strong support. The board also brought in specific expertise as part of recruitment to the board last year relating to IT. It is something the board is very conscious of. The board wants to make sure the IT systems are fit for purpose for the public, both tenants and landlords. I know it is a real priority for the chief executive who took over last year.
