The uncertainty created by and the limitations on normal work activity for staff resulting from the pandemic are creating additional delays. An updated plan of activities for the implementation of a feasible data collection will be agreed by all stakeholders on September 2020. The SIGFIP contract could start as much as possible using remote methods. Although at a slower pace than expected, it can be considered on track. However, none of the planned activities supporting the control institutions could take place. The project supported the Covid-19 crisis through distribution of laptops and tablets and financing of remote connectivity for home-based work. Possible unexpected financing needs for the SIGFIP side will be financed if necessary by budget cuts for the control institutions that are not using their budgets.
