I thank the Minister for a comprehensive response. It would appear that the people in question are campaigning in the wrong vein in that it is a European issue they may need to examine or, alternatively, they could have Irish dancing reclassified as a cultural activity. The Minister has also outlined a number of exemptions, which has provided clarity for me. There will be an ongoing discussion on this issue, but the points made by the campaigners in question are well made, and I thank the Minister for his response.
