It is a very important and interesting point about the over 55 cohort. To clarify, I am not talking about differentiating between one type of worker and another. I am saying that, at a macro level, less time needs to be spent overall to reach the output that we require to sustain ourselves and, therefore, spreading that out and having everyone, whether you work in digital services or something else, makes most sense to me. We do find there is more flexibility in some of those roles compared with those where you have to be in a location in order to carry out your functions.
