Answer

I have not commissioned any specific analysis of the Centrix report referred to. I maintain regular engagement with the hospitality sector to hear directly about current operating environments. This includes meetings with hospitality businesses and the Hospitality Summits hosted at Parliament in 2024 and 2026.
