Renard: The city should keep the covered market open on Sundays. It costs very little to staff -- one supervisor and the cleaners -- and the traders want it.

Sowande: The traders who want it are the ones selling to visitors, and they hold the pitches by the door. The traders who sell to people who actually live here have told us they would rather have the day off, and they are two-thirds of the hall.

Renard and Sowande disagree over whether

Athe city should find out what the market's traders want before it makes any change to the days on which the hall is open to the public

Bthe traders who sell to visitors take more money on a Sunday than they do on an ordinary trading weekday

Cthe traders of the covered market, taken as a body rather than one group at a time, want the hall to open on Sundays

Dkeeping the covered market open on Sundays would cost the city very little to staff, since the hall needs no more than a single supervisor and the cleaners already employed there

Esome of the traders who hold pitches in the covered market want the hall to be open to the public on Sundays and have told the city so
