First Minister, with the new work-from-home requirement in place, I'm sure we can all appreciate a lot of people who use buses to commute to and from work will naturally no longer be passengers on the bus network. I'm sure we're all aware that the Welsh Government will probably underwrite Transport for Wales's losses, but what action will you take to support bus operators across Wales who will also see ticket sales slump eventually? And will you be pushing Transport for Wales to be prepared to expand the services quicker than we've seen after previous lockdowns and restrictions, especially during periods of high demand, such as sporting events, as well as enabling people to take public transport to return to work when it's possible again to do so? Thank you.
