In terms of the wider insurance industry, representations were made by both the Licensed Vintners Association and Vintners Federation Ireland, which represent Dublin pubs and rural pubs. Will the Minister of State commit to meeting them? They wanted their issues to be aired here. They have seen huge increases in premiums and massive increases in payouts from insurance companies and they feel very vulnerable to huge increases. There are not many insurance companies operating in that industry. They need to engage not just with us in a public forum but with the Minister of State's group. Will the Minister of State commit to meeting both those organisations?
