Wales apparently had extra doses early on as the Barnet Formula showed a higher number of elderly/vulnerable population. Hence more falling into the more needy categories. A slight delay in getting up to speed on giving the jabs but that soon reversed.
The next couple of years will be interesting from Covid management to economic recovery to long term strategic plans ( if any!!).
Getting the domestic part of the economy back is critical. But....what plans are there to pay for the Covid costs? Will we have an extended recoup or will faster measures be implemented? Opportunities to generate tax income have been already announced but there will definitely be more coming.
Austerity is likely to return ( if it has gone?).
That’s my pragmatic view.
Just remembered the statement about recruiting extra HMRC staff. Brace yourselves!
