Summarization
The hospitality industry in rural Ireland is struggling due to rising costs. Mondello Park will not be able to host any motorcycle racing events in 2023 due to insurance issues. Ireland’s insurance industry needs more competition. The lobbying for a VAT increase in hospitality was poor and people are leaving the industry as standard and prices continue to increase. There have been accusations of price gouging which has had a negative impact on Ireland’s brand image. The increase in VAT of hospitality services is expected to be implemented in the next government package.

We recently heard two stark comparisons. One monthly loan repayment for our insurance could cover a tree park's annual insurance in Germany. And, one of Ireland's larger zip parks' insurance bill could cover all zip parks in Germany. #EconomicDisparity #insurancereform | 5 |

| 1624305133956874248 | Mondello Park will be unable to run any motorcycle racing events in 2023, due to on-going insurance issues. Ireland's incumbent insurance industry is not serving society well. Much more competition needed. #InsuranceReform https://t.co/rh467jBHRx @RGDATATara @adriancummins https://t.co/pUlN8izaCM | 4 |

Is it a claims culture in our society ? @PearseDoherty | 1 |
| 1626709305092374529 | @adriancummins @PearseDoherty @sinnfeinireland I see hotels/restaurants/bars have put multiple 9%'s on their prices since lockdowns ended which I understand with the cost of energy etc. I don't understand the furore in essence over an extra €9 in €100. That's basically 2 main courses and a btl of wine in most places now! | 1 |

| 1625543236273029124 | @IdahoNua @adriancummins @mmcgrathtd I think it’s more that the hotels have by and large gouged their customers and availed of the vat reductions and now the government are saying stop, restaurants should lobby individually | 0 |

| 1626529879654125568 | @adriancummins To be honest the lobbying was quite poor, there's more at stake than just the VAT increase, the industry as a whole is exhausted, experienced staff are leaving in droves, standard's will continue to drop while prices will continue to increase, squeezing the small guys out! | 7 |
| 1626562805431246853 | @adriancummins Really clutching here @adriancummins ! | 6 |
| 1625934544850325522 | @sidkearney @adriancummins @RAI_ie Well they should target those places... maybe via turnover figures? Believe us, this VAT change will absolute decimate your local eatery after last years energy increases and wage increases this year (which are fully deserved) but this is the straw that breaks the camels back. | 5 |
| 1626576492951142401 | @adriancummins No the price gouging by the hospitality industry is what has a deeply negative impact on Ireland’s brand image. | 4 |

| 1625938422308212744 | @sidkearney @adriancummins @RAI_ie Perfectly put and stated Sinead, but in reality this is going to be carnage for many businesses. Customers are not immune to these price rises, so simply 'passing it on' is not going to be easy. The benefits of staying at 9% far outweigh the trouble it will cause. | 4 |
| 1626500356002795521 | @adriancummins @JimPowerEcon Adrian, the brand image for tourism has been hit harder by the prices. I get that inputs have gone up. I get that staff are harder to recruit and more expensive. But there is also gouging going on. Ireland is an expensive country to go on holiday, full stop. | 4 |
