I thank the Minister for coming in to speak to us and to answer our questions. He touched on an awful lot already but I want to focus on the stimulus measures we have taken so far, more so on the capital stimulus measures rather than the wage subsidies, unemployment assistance and so on. I acknowledge it is still quite early but are there indications that these measures are having an economic effect? Are there particular stimulus measures on the capital side that the Minister sees as being particularly effective?
