I am sure it would. I also wonder whether, where people are running into difficulty, the banks are passing that on to the credit bureaus. I know leasing companies are very difficult in that respect. A lot of sole traders will find it difficult now to meet payments, get extensions to payments and all of that. It is very unfair that people who have been forced into this situation suddenly find their credit rating has been impacted.

I would like to ask some of the events people about funfairs, which are probably an adjunct. I think only one insurance company was providing insurance, through the Showmens Guild, over the last couple of years. This was a huge problem even before the onset of Covid. In my constituency, in Tramore, which has the amusement park, this is an ongoing issue. Have the witnesses had discussions with any Department or received any kind of solace with respect to insurance?
