17. SOUNDBITE (German) Lutz Leichsenring, spokesperson for the 'Clubcommission' umbrella group for nightclubs in Berlin:
"The situation is very critical at the moment. We noticed that many support programs that were approved in November or December have still not been paid out. And some are getting nervous because the accounts are overdrawn, the employees are still paid every month, and the health insurance companies deduct their money. But the pots of support that were promised have not yet been transferred."
