What you are saying is that, at the moment, we do not have data that tells us whether we have managed to reduce child poverty. The programme has been running for two years, but we do not have any data that supports the principal aim behind the policy.

I presume that the fire service would support having more knowledge about what is in a building before firefighters go in.

Is it permissible to build with RAAC today? It has not been banned.

Good morning, cabinet secretary and colleagues. You might have heard a wee bit of the discussion with the first panel about whether a register is needed of what buildings in this country are made of. We do not have such a register. From time to time at the committee, the question comes up whether people are entitled to know what their buildings—their homes—are made of. Would the Government take that forward? I realise that it cannot be done overnight but, looking ahead, would the Government support that as part of this process, or of a wider process?

Is there a requirement to record that information so that, when the house is sold on and on, new owners can access it?

Okay. That is probably something that we will choose to follow up.

You might have heard Peter Drummond say that there are no architects in Scotland with experience of working with RAAC, because of its age. Is that a worry or a concern?
