I apologise for briefly interrupting Mr. Creegan. It does seem to be the case that approach is to carefully roll out these networks. However, given the challenge that we are in, and the urgency of that challenge and crisis, a different approach is to do what has been seen during the pandemic. That is the quick road space reallocation. We would win the space and then at some future point we would come back and do the more permanent infrastructure and networks. Can Mr. Creegan comment on that? There are two ways of looking at this. One is cheap, quick and imperfect. The other is more thought through, more designed, will have more consultation, is certainly more expensive and will take much longer.
