I thank the Minister of State. He mentioned communities working with the OPW and I acknowledge this. I have come across certain instances of difficulties in hiring out a venue for a one-off community event for a celebration at a certain time of the year. Is a departmental or OPW insurance scheme available for communities or are they required to have their own insurance for one-off events? A celebration might involve a night-time event. Are communities required to have their own insurance or is the OPW involved? Might this area be explored?
