Mr. Denis Dolan:
I concur with Deputy Butler. We are speaking predominantly about businesses employing one and two people. It is important that distinction is made. A system akin to that introduced in the UK would work. We replicate so many of the laws and so on introduced in the UK. The introduction here of a system similar to that being introduced in the UK would in my view appear to be a logical starting point.
