My Department does not collect information in relation to the ownership of the properties supplied under the Social Housing Leasing Initiative. While discussions have taken place with a range of relevant parties, including the banking sector and the National Assets Management Agency, regarding the Initiative, my Department would generally not be aware of the details of individual negotiations between authorities, property owners and financial institutions.
