Perhaps Ms Byrne would elaborate on the manner in which the amount to be paid by each bookmaker to the Dunlewey Centre is determined.

With regard to shows, concern has been expressed in relation to head 70, which relates to access to family activities. How in Ms Byrne's view can we get around this? Having brought children to various amusements down through the years, I can see the attraction. Is the concern that if head 70 remains as drafted children will not have access to amusing activities such as the hoopla or the catching ducks?
