I wish Mr. Davitt the best. I suspect it is not the last we will see of him. It might not formally be with IPAV, but I suspect he will be about the House.
I have two questions for Threshold. I thank everybody for the submissions. Will Mr. McCafferty or Ms O'Reilly set out Threshold's view of what we know so far about the market reset proposals in the RPZ reforms for new and first-time tenancies from March of next year? I know we have not seen the legislation but will Threshold set out what it believes will be the impact of those reforms on tenants? We have also had the announced changes to apartment standards. There has been a lot of discussion of the impact that will have on viability. Will Threshold give the tenant's point of view on what the impact will be of those new design standard regulations?
