Mr. John McMahon:
The only thing we get back is when they pay for any damage. We receive a bond from them which covers any damage that may occur. If there is really bad weather, as we had a number of years ago, the ground gets churned up because of the number of people in a concentrated location. In such circumstances, we are able to use the money from the bond to repair the ground. We take measures to protect the park from any damage that might be done, but we do not get any income from it. The State got an income from the Ed Sheeran concerts.
