This question is related to Question No. 4. I am asking the Minister to outline the progress that has been made on the provision of social housing. I am not asking for the targets for 2020; I want to know exactly what has been achieved in 2015. The Minister referred earlier to there being a lag-time in construction projects, which I do not dispute. However, from 2007 to 2010, 14,000 houses were built, while, by contrast, between 2010 to 2014, 1,400 houses were constructed. Therein lies part of the problem.
