There may be some value in properly interrogating the cost rental model from a value for money perspective. The €1,200 per month rent for the cost rental homes is on the last page of that information, which I believe is the Enniskerry Road project. One of the things I am not at all clear about is whether the new system is going to have some profit element to it. I do not believe the information goes into this in any kind of detail. This issue may be for the housing committee because cost rental schemes will become a matter of policy, but I am questioning whether there is a value for money issue we need to look at with regard to the pilot project. We might deal with this when the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage is next into this committee.
