Ms Joanne Mangan:

Yes, something along the same lines as that, a voucher payment. I do not have an amount in mind or anything like that but I am referring to a once-off grant or voucher that can be used to support a business's remote work transformation or remote-ready transformation similar to the digital transformation that companies have been through in the past.

I am not aware of any specific countries that have a similar model. Portugal is very ahead of the game when it comes to supports and legislation and being very proactive around remote working. There may be something like that in place there. We could have a look at that after the meeting if the Deputy is interested in finding out more.
