Regarding Ireland, there was a move to cashless transactions during Covid-19. Many people had to do much of their buying online because many retail outlets and businesses were closed and were not customer-facing, to use that term. Since we have over the last year, thankfully, emerged from Covid-19, or perhaps not just yet but we are nearly there, hopefully, has there been a move back to using cash? Do we have any read on what is happening in this context?
