Absolutely. I know whose side I am on in that. If there is a perpetrator and a victim, I will always be on the victim's side, as we all should be. I have set out the work that the Housing Executive continues to do, but we will also look at the additional supports that can be made available that may already be in place elsewhere. We will always learn from best practice, because what some people have had to go through is absolutely horrendous. We want to make sure we provide all the support that we can. A lot of time, effort and energy go into doing our best, but we can always look at areas for improvement, and I commit to doing that.
