I am delighted the Minister of State, Deputy English, is here because he has a good grasp of the housing issue. It is certainly the answer I wanted to hear. It is a practical answer. It is a change in policy, or a change from what was in some letters we received from the Department, of which I am sure the Minister of State is aware. He is doing work on this behind the scenes. I am sure it would not have changed otherwise. I appreciate the change in stance from what was in the documentation we received in the past couple of months. I appreciate the Minister of State's good work and common sense on the issue.
