Mr. Roger Harrington:
They are the capital assistance scheme, CAS; the cost rental equity loan scheme, CREL; the capital advance leasing facility, CALF; and the provision of affordable housing scheme. I am responsible in the Department for the main scheme, the CALF, which is the main funding source for AHBs in the provision of social housing. Regarding the targets under Housing for All, each local authority area has a target of between 40% and 50% from the AHB sector. In Dublin and Cork, that target is 50% of all social housing delivery. It is 40% in all other local authority areas.
