That brings us to a natural conclusion. I thank both witnesses for being here today and giving such insightful insight into their work. I hope they know their work is very much valued by the members of this committee and beyond throughout this very difficult time for our artists who have kept us all going and kept our spirits lifted. Go raibh míle maith agaibh to both witnesses for attending today.

Before we adjourn, I remind members and witnesses to vacate the room immediately in order to allow for the sanitisation of the room and the set up of the next meeting. The meeting is adjourned until 1 p.m. on Wednesday, 2 December 2020 for a private Teams meeting, followed by the joint committee meeting in public session at 2 p.m., where representatives from Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland will discuss challenges facing the tourism sector arising from the impact of Covid-19.
