I thank Ms Murphy. I would like to pick up on Mr. Herron's observation that taxi drivers cannot get insurance without experience and cannot get experience because they cannot get insurance in the first place. I presume that will lead over time to a reduction in the number of taxi drivers, as people get older and retire. Mr. Herron mentioned earlier that there are almost no new entrants coming in as taxi drivers. Is that the case?
