In fairness, it seems that due diligence is being done and all information sources in respect of Omicron are being chased down, which is vital and will play a significant part in making determinations on moves in respect of these new restrictions. I appreciate all that has been said.

I ask the Chairman to allow me to put a slightly tangential question relating to an issue that has arisen. I am aware of several community organisations that were taking kids to play five-a-side indoor soccer. There were adults playing alongside and supervising the kids. With the changed rules for indoor settings, am I right in thinking those teenage kids will be checked for Covid certificates? I would not bet on all of them having a certificate, much as I may wish them to have one. I am seeking clarity on that issue. My apologies to our guests; I know they were not anticipating that question.
