Could we look at the process? In fairness to the toll tag I am a big believer in that. For me, as a motorist, it is a fantastic facility to be able to use. I do not mind paying and I am lucky that I can pay the amount per month, whatever way TII uses to take it out. It is a great system.

We have had the conversation with Deputy O'Rourke and the Chairman. The whole process seems cumbersome. I accept that there are PPPs, differences with roads, etc. I do not know the answer to this question - and I apologise - but in the context of Covid and the reduced number of vehicles on the roads, the toll companies and the PPPs did not necessarily have the volume of traffic to gain revenue. Did they avail of the Covid payment from the Government or did TII?
