I do not want to sound simplistic. I run a business with ten employees and we have just finished our set of accounts. I am also involved in two other companies and have a reasonable grasp of what is going on. There should be some mechanism whereby one company could get credit from another. The companies involved do not have to be in the same line of business. We have networks and the delegates know the people who are importing and exporting. To try to keep some of these viable businesses afloat, the Government could put something in place. I know that it would take some work, but perhaps companies might pair in order that one would give credit to another to keep it open. That is the general point I am making.
