Mr. Graham Doyle:
In the context of the various affordable schemes announced in Housing for All, the target was 4,000 units. We have a number of approaches to affordable. There is the affordable purchase scheme, which can be delivered by the local authorities and the LDA. There is cost rental, which can be delivered by local authorities, the LDA and the AHBs, and then there is the first home shared equity scheme. There are three strands to affordability.
