-----very generous and favourable scheme. People have been delighted to use it. Many people have told us not to change the scheme, while others have indicated that we should change it. That is where the debate will go in the weeks ahead.

The Minster has explained that he will bring that forward in the weeks ahead. We will be debating that here, and certainly the housing committee will be discussing it. A great deal of information has to feed into that discussion because that is what is needed.
