I wish to follow up on a point that I referenced previously. I led a delegation to the Tánaiste recently from the Regional Group around a new buy local campaign which the Government has committed to put money into from July 2021. I would like to see everybody actively pushing and promoting the idea of indigenous genuine buying Irish where we can. We must get that message out. With the economy opening up, it is most important that we highlight the need for as much money as possible to remain circulating within this economy rather than gravitating to international markets and online shopping and all of that.
