I also attended the service. It was absolutely beautiful. I would want, in particular, to join my comments to what MP Simmons said. And what he said was absolutely spot on.

The Minister mentioned that there will be some discussion with the restaurateurs and other food service providers. I am just wondering if the Minister can sort of give any insight into whether there will be any residual impacts for particularly fast food restaurants.
