Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Impact of Covid-19: Arts and Entertainment Sector

Ms Elaine O'Connor:

Having had a conversation with the Showmens Guild myself in the last few days, I am not aware that there has been any communication there. I will take the opportunity to point out that funfairs and amusements are particularly challenging. They have a massive amount of equipment that needs to be maintained to make sure their certificates remain valid. They have other challenges that are slightly harsher than the event industry from the perspective of proximity and social distancing.
