As I said, in line with the homelessness strategy, I intend to put on a statutory basis the homelessness action plan by bringing forward amendments during the passage of the Bill. I spoke about that plan before lunch today. Such plans will deal with the implementation issue as well as addressing the concerns that have been expressed. I know that they are two different sections, but I have put that on the record of the House. I reiterate that there will be an opportunity for the implementation plan to be placed on a statutory basis. I am not accepting the amendment on account of that, as I explained earlier.
