I take the point. There is potential this year for a lot of tourism-based projects to get a boost with people holidaying at home. We perhaps have a responsibility to push them out and encourage people to visit tourism-based community services programmes. The few services I am aware of tend to be hubs for various types of activity, but there is always scope for broadening what they do.
They tend to be crucial to the local communities nearby. We are restructuring the programme also, which can be taken into the mix in that process as well.
