Looking ahead and hoping for a future where the institutions will be given the capacity to borrow, and that being a portion of the solution to solving the problem of student housing, the Minister is also minded that the private sector has a significant role to play in this as well. Other measures are being considered that will hopefully stimulate the private sector to bring forward as much student accommodation as possible. Looking forward to that future where institutions are enabled to have a more direct role, what are the witnesses' thoughts on the capacity within their organisations to manage these lengthy and significant projects? What is the need within each of their organisations? How can we support them there?
