The remit of the DDDA was social regeneration, which was very ground-breaking at the time because previously the focus had been on the physical regeneration rather than on the community. I imagine the argument will be made that the pension contributions currently with the DDDA should be transferred to the Department to increase the surplus available. Would the community agree with that?
