Dr. Quinn said earlier that the design of the restart scheme was done very quickly, from the beginning of May to being operational on 22 May or thereabouts, which is important and well done on that. She said that, in other circumstances, it might have taken a year to put a scheme of that kind together. We saw the same quick delivery of schemes in the Department of Social Protection with the PUP and CRSS. For the future, is there some timeframe between three weeks and a year, given we might have learned that we can do things more aggressively in the future?
