I thank the hon. Gentleman for his intervention, which is in the same spirit as a comment by the right hon. Member for Oxford East (Anneliese Dodds), who mentioned an example of NHS letters being prioritised.

The hospitality sector provides around 300,000 jobs for young people every year and contributes £96 billion annually to the economy.
