I thank Mr. O'Connor. I would like to ask Mr. McCarthy a straightforward question before I call the opening speaker. He rightly said in his opening statement that "delivery [of housing] can only be accelerated by local authorities, the Housing Agency and AHBs working in partnership." Will he give me a report on the most recent meeting that would have taken place, having been called by the Department as the funder, with the local authorities, the Housing Agency and the major AHBs? Obviously, that is the hub where everything should happen. When was the last meeting the Department had with all of these groups?
