That is grand. A question on proactive registration of landlords has already been asked. Is there any mapping exercise or random sample done from things like land registration or planning applications with regard to proactive registration of landlords?
Is there any work being done with local authorities on the breakdown of people who qualify for the tenant in situ scheme? We tried to get an amendment added whereby if somebody qualified for tenant in situ, a notice to quit would be given by the RTB to the local authority. That was not accepted but do any local authorities have those informal arrangements where there is a family at risk of homelessness, or somebody who qualifies for local authority housing at risk of homelessness, that the RTB actually deals with the local authority? Are there any informal arrangements on that?
