Part of the answer lies in the new Houses, which will meet part of the demand for cheap housing. But will this mean that all those who want cheap rooms will flock to the new houses, resurrecting the old Gold Coast situation? We hope not.

But even the finest racing machine in the world would be nothing without the finest drivers.
