Wow—okay. The member will be well aware that the issue has been well covered by my colleague the Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Fair Work and Culture, Fiona Hyslop, who spoke yesterday at length about the steps that we are taking to work with the manufacturing and other sectors as we return to work post-lockdown. He will also understand very well that the Scottish Government’s focus is to place the health of the population of Scotland at the fore, and to work with others to make sure that there is an evidence-based and science-led approach and that we manage the return from lockdown in the safest way possible that ensures that the people of Scotland stay safe through this situation. I can only point him to the to the work that we have done on that, to the statement that was made by my colleague and to our priority, which is making sure that the safety of the people of Scotland is paramount.
