Motorcycling Ireland raised an issue yesterday. The Minister of State may have heard some of the material in the public domain about the difficulties it has with getting insurance. It spoke about the huge importance of the sport. We have a large number of issues, covering everything from community centres to community groups when it comes to public liability insurance. I will ask the Minister of State a question on their behalf on the basis that up to a couple of months ago the matter fell within his remit. It is now with his party colleague who has responsibility for sport. Insurance is a wider issue. We are probably still talking about needing the duty of care piece and everything else.
