In terms of the cost rental we have to date, one of the things we are beginning to hear is that there is a cohort of people who are taking up cost rental who are quite close to the point of purchasing or saving for a deposit, and that is leading to a higher than expected exit rate from the existing cost-rental schemes that have been tenanted in the last year. Is that something the Department is aware of or looking at in terms of how it could impact on the viability of the schemes currently in place?
