One of the most disappointing aspects of the Minister's tenure has been his failure to deliver genuine affordable homes to rent or buy through local authorities, approved housing bodies and the Land Development Agency, LDA. As the Minister knows, of the 4,400 genuinely affordable homes to which his plan commits, halfway through this year only 123 had been delivered. I accept there is significant additional delivery in the second half of the year. Will the Minister provide an update on the total delivery of those schemes by the end of the third quarter and whether he expects to meet his target of delivering 4,400 affordable homes by year's end?
