I am sorry to cut across the Minister, but I see that Deputy Farrell wants to speak. I am concerned about the lack of people getting screened. Many people are coming to my constituency office and are concerned about that, so I appreciate the Minister's answer. I hope to see a significant change in the future.

Page 2 of the statement states that, "For workers in firms and sectors that are no longer viable, the policy focus will shift to reskilling so that these workers can transition to viable sectors”. I am interested to hear what sectors the Minister envisages will not be viable post-Covid-19. Also, what reskilling will be provided? I know there are time constraints so if the Minister cannot give me a quick answer, it is fine if wants to come back to me in writing.
