I understand the argument the Deputy is making. I have been contacted by representatives of the beauty sector. Unfortunately, there are very clear legal reasons as to why I cannot do that. I am raising the matter with the European Commission for clarification because I can understand why the beauty sector is asking why it is excluded from a measure in which hairdressing services are included. While I have a clear reason based in law for doing this, I know that some in the beauty sector are looking at how they can pursue this matter. I will seek further clarification from the European Commission on this issue.
