From speaking to those who visit my constituency offices, a lot are grappling with the dual pressures of escalating debt and the rising cost of living, compounded by the inflationary environment we are in. We need to ensure that Revenue and the county sheriffs are collaboratively working together and demonstrating compassion with individuals and businesses that are impacted by this. It is paramount that we continue to develop strategies to support those who find themselves in challenging circumstances. I welcome the flexible payment arrangements. That is important, particularly in light of the cost-of-living issues and the ongoing challenges people face. We must stand alongside our local businesses and ensure they can maintain their presence in our towns and villages and that they support employment. I ask that the Government continues to assist companies that might struggle in this process.
