Damien English (Meath West, Fine Gael)

That is good. Will she please bear it in mind? I want our authorities to cut some slack to businesses that are genuinely trying. I have dealt with two or three already who are under immense pressure. ISME members are obviously feeling the heavy hand and I want the Minister to talk to that organisation. We are talking about the threat of attachment orders that can prevent a bank from making money available; we are not talking about the 2,000 in the past but rather the potential threat of it happening. This is a serious issue. I ask the Minister to give it some thought and to talk to the people involved.
