The rents are already at a reduced rate versus the market rents. When the rents are calculated and an agreement is made with tenants, this must be done on the basis of the policy framework at that point in time. That is what has happened here with regard to the LDA. In any event, the total number of cost-rental properties available makes up a relatively small share of what the LDA is going to have to deliver in the years ahead. I hope this change will allow us to give the LDA a better chance of delivering its future cost-rental aims.
