I want to ask the Minister if she would agree that the prospering of the arts and the arts community in Ireland will be vital in the context of the challenges posed to the whole country and island as a consequence of Brexit. What proposals does the Minister have to, for instance, support artists who in many cases earn less than 70% of the average wage? Does she foresee artists having a minimum wage or living wage? We talked about this previously. Where does that fit into the strategy?
