A multi-unit development. We are talking about an apartment block. I am not arguing about whether this is right or wrong, as I will have that argument with the Minister on Second Stage, but I am trying to understand this. It could be the case that, in a multi-unit development or single apartment block, one landlord is not obligated by the conditions of this scheme because he or she owns a sufficient number of properties whereas another landlord with a different number of properties is obligated.
