Is it fair to say that the ad hoc method of delivery of housing lends itself to smaller scale? Would better land-use regulation, larger-scale projects and larger delivery of infrastructure with a larger-scale delivery of housing by the private sector, the Land Development Agency or whoever it is lend itself to greater levels of productivity? If we had a more co-ordinated and planned approach to how we are going to deliver housing and infrastructure and to the land use regulation, would that lend itself to greater productivity on the part of the private sector, the Land Development Agency or whoever?
