There will be a set of strict criteria which will be monitored by the Commonwealth about the purchase of new homes and, where there is existing partially completed stock, about how that would occur. We are not ruling it out. I am not saying that that will happen, but we are not ruling it out because it may be necessary. That is not the focus of the program going forward, but there will be detailed criteria set out to oversight that.
