May I ask a final question regarding approved housing bodies? Were the remit of such bodies to be expanded, might there be a role for them in cross-subsidising their activities? In other words, they could have their social remit while at the same time being able to provide housing into the private sector or in other words, cross-subsidising their social housing provision with private rented provision.
