I wish to focus on the land the Housing Agency has, that is, the 73 sites. An estimated 5,365 units are to be delivered on it. The Comptroller and Auditor General already has spoken about the 676 units, that was estimated at about 52 units per year over 13 years. It is quite slow. We need to ensure that figure has a few zeroes after it. What has been the change in the past few months or years to ensure those units and more are being delivered on those sites?
