Mr. David McGuinness:

The rental sector would not be my area of expertise but I believe drivers pay an amount of money per week to rent the vehicle. It could be up to €250 per week to rent the vehicle. I think the rental sector represents approximately 30% of the industry in total, and 70% of licences are owned by individuals within the sector. The rental sector is on average approximately 30%. I do not know whether they will be affected by the higher costs involved because they operate on a bigger scale and the price is passed on to the individual who is renting the vehicle. As I said at the beginning, our organisation represents single licenceholders. I would not, therefore, know too much regarding the rental sector.
