Sakaja for the good work that they are doing. More questions will be coming soon. Do not get tired of my over-work. However, when I gave this Statement on the Welfare Support for Unionisable Employees, I also wanted this to go beyond COVID-19 as an emergency and look at other emergencies. How are they using the Emergency Fund to respond to other emergencies? COVID-19 was just one of them. I had requested for direction that this Statement goes to the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, where Sen. Sakaja is again an able Chair, and I am a Member of that Committee. Could the Committee also address this issue so that the long-term responses and solutions go beyond COVID-19? Thank you."}
