This is a problem that could be solved by allowing the schemes to be extended. The current difficulties are exacerbated by the fact more people are in employment, but that is a great thing. No one could put a figure on the value of the work done by the people on the schemes in question. Fáilte Ireland was mentioned. It has benefited enormously from the work the people to whom I refer have done. I refer to tourists visiting clean and tidy towns and the enthusiasm of people in those areas. I also want to address the situation where more than 1,000 cars are present in a town or village. I do not know the details, but there is some stipulation in respect of having more than 1,000 cars in a town or village.
