Over 5,000 rooms are needed, ultimately. Perhaps Ms Campbell can answer my next question, as she mentioned the energy support scheme. I know from talking to hotel owners that energy costs are the big issue. The scheme has been amended, but are there any specific changes to the scheme that Ms Campbell thinks would be beneficial to the sector?

This committee is also responsible for the arts, media and culture. I have a question around the impact of cultural tourism in light of the films "The Banshees of Inisherin" and "An Cailín Ciúin", which were, significantly, filmed outside the major urban centres. Will Ms Campbell comment on the impact of cultural tourism and filming in the regions, in particular? This committee takes a strong view on the regional uplift to support filming in the regions. Does Ms Campbell have a view on cultural tourism?
