Thank you, Mr. Chair, for the question.
What we report in our “A place to call home” report is the amount that has been spent to date. The way we are reporting or accounting for these expenditures follows international accounting standards, which state that we need to recognize when the building has been completed and finished, and as we progress and advance the funds.
In multi-unit residential, even shelters, it takes five to eight years to complete a project. As you can see, we are five years into the national housing strategy. What you see on record is what has been spent, given the level of completion of projects.
