Given where we see we are, and we know where we are likely to be with the vaccines, the job in respect of this programme update and the first interactions regarding the budget is to try to project ahead. Does the Central Bank see that the latter end of this year would be the right time to start to phase out or indeed to stop some of these supports in their entirety? I take from Dr. Cassidy's economic letter that there might be a tapering out, depending on the circumstances, but some of these supports are going out to 2022.
