Thank you, Madam Speaker. The rent is based on 25 per cent of the gross income. If people are not making very much money, or if they are unemployed, then they will pay the minimum rent. The main thing is the tenants must bring it up to the housing authority that they are not working, or their rent will be assessed at the higher rate. So they have to let the housing association know they are unemployed, then they will get the lower rate. Thank you.
