I will finish because my time is up. There is something not right with the fact that we have insurance companies making such huge profits. We have companies paying higher premiums. We saw the motor industry report last week as well. Premiums are higher and higher. Sorry, that is motor insurance. They are blaming fixing cars. When it comes to public liability, we have had nobody in. I would urge Mr. McHugh, although he said it is not a priority for the CCPC now. The businesses in that sector that cannot get insurance cannot wait for the CCPC to decide that it will be a priority. I would ask Mr. McHugh to think about that and take it as something from today.
