Thank you, Minister, and it was good to see the announcement of the additional funding to tackle homelessness that you made in August. I want to flag up one initiative today from Rhondda Cynon Taf, and that's the authority's creation of a social letting agency to manage private rental properties that would be subdivided into single person accommodation for people otherwise at risk of homelessness. I know that the project is funded by Welsh Government, but how more generally do you see social letting schemes fitting into your work to eliminate homelessness in Wales and the vision for the future of housing?
