Thank you for that question, Mark. Our package of support for the visitor economy and the tourism industry is the most generous in the United Kingdom. And, at 5 June, over £10 million had been awarded to tourism enterprises through our economic resilience fund. We estimate that this has safeguarded over 4,500 employees in the sector. And we are now in phase 2 of the fund, which is open, which will assist additional tourism businesses who access the funding.
