Ms Buckley is sticking up for post offices, barber shops and bookshops. I am trying to tease out the issue. I have to speak on a Bill in the Seanad. We have a fairly good idea of the views of the witnesses from the summary. They are concerned about the proliferation of outlets, how gambling has traditionally been managed and that the more things go online the more underground they become. The system then becomes more insidious and it is more difficult for people to see a problem. If somebody buys 1,000 lotto tickets, it is fairly evident that there may be an issue, something which is not apparent when he or she does the same on a phone. The regulator is very new. Is it the view of Ms Buckley that she would like to have better engagement with him?
