What about the response by Government in terms of providing the necessary funding? In the context of not being able to get back fully until mid or late 2021, it is important from the figures that have been presented that they reflect the possibility of a longer recovery for the sector. There is a need to support EPIC and the other parts of the industry that act behind the scenes. I hope that the figures are big enough, in presenting to Government, to capture that possibility.
