The voluntary housing associations own those properties and while we have included in this legislation, under the incremental purchase scheme, the opportunity to purchase in the voluntary sector, that does not apply to existing local authority houses. It is for properties in place after that. A review of the voluntary side is taking place but I want to make it clear that those voluntary housing associations own those properties. That is the current position.
