I refer to Deputy Sean Fleming's point.

If we cannot renegotiate some of them in the times that are in it, it is a little unlikely that we will be able to do so when the commercial property market tightens, as it has been. I accept what Ms McGrath stated about old-style properties, but if there has been a reduction of 12% in numbers, is it too simplistic to think she might be able to tell a few of the landlords who do not want to deal with her to take their properties somewhere else?
