(3) If there is such a database, has ACTPLA collated this data in a form useful for analysis and policy development; if not, what would it cost to do this.

(4) Has ACTPLA, or another agency, contacted All Homes, which I understand has been keeping records of EERs for houses it advertises for many years.
