I accept the council has to operate within the terms of the circular. I am not disputing that. That is a row I will have with the Minister separately. Am I correct in the figures that, of the overhang of the figure the chief executive gave to TDs, which I think was 70, that currently only 40 of those are still being considered? On some the decision has been made to purchase and some are still being worked through conveyancing, etc. That means 30 of the overhang have dropped out. Have all of those dropped out because of the new rules, or is there any information Ms Leech can give us on that?
