I thank Ms Campbell. I return to the issue of price gouging when the occupancy exceeds 90%, whether that is at weekends during the summer or when there is a large event or concert. Someone said earlier that this happens when hotels are very busy and it involves the last remaining beds. When hotels are very busy, with occupancy at 90%, why would they engage in price gouging in respect of the last remaining beds when there is ample demand? It is crazy.
