Public Bill CommitteesI am a vice-president of the Local Government Association.
I do not know whether I need to declare this, but I rent, so I am not a homeowner. Hopefully, that means that I have a particular interest in this.
I think we all do, in one place or another, but that is probably not an interest to declare: it costs you money, rather than getting you any money.
Unless there are any further questions from colleagues, I thank our three witnesses for their evidence, which will be very useful to the Committee in the deliberations that lie ahead.
I will ask the last set of witnesses to take the stand as soon as possible, without too much further delay, but just before our next panel, I ask Dean Russell to make a wee declaration of interests.
Thank you, Chair. I just want to declare that my wife works part time at an estate agent that also does lettings.
Mr Gray, I should also have said that I sit on the legal working group for a radical housing co-operative association.
