To be clear, I am not in any way suggesting that we take any shortcuts in this regard. Perhaps a better example is the one Deputy O'Donovan gave regarding vintage cars. Those types of vehicles are seldom involved in accidents, as far as I am aware, and their owners often do a great deal of charitable work, which is particularly important in the rural economy. It is about getting the balance right.
