First of all, this is integral because I want to know whether or not you've got enough married quarters and all the rest out there to get where you need to be by 2030 in bringing extras in. So you should have numbers in front of you. That's the first thing. We're going to go over quite a substantial thing because I need to make sure that our own have got housing if they're in uniform. That's what I want to know, and right now, because I've got no numbers and you can't give me any, there is no guarantee. That is my biggest problem. While we're here looking at numbers, can you tell how many members are in choice accommodation, how many are in living-in accommodation, how many are accessing rental assistance and how many are in service residences? I need those up-to-date numbers so you and I can go on with the conversation this morning.
