Honestly, from what I've seen—and I'll speak for myself—I'd like to think that, yes, it did. Again, there was no playbook with the pandemic. It was the first time.
I think that, generally, there were a lot of people who wanted to ensure that the right decisions were being made. Again, I'm not going to waste time and explain it again. We did take the time to make sure that the departments understood what it meant to operate outside of the normal control framework of the government, if that was the case, with the need for documentation and audits to be done.
I think we did provide direction. Could we be better? Perhaps we could, but we took our role very seriously during the pandemic.
