Do you care to elaborate on why it would not made any difference? And,
if possible, also on what could do one, if you have any ideas about
that?

I have to say that I agree with Paweł fully, I would love to see such
things being handled a way faster and to be better communicated, if
they're 'on they way' and I also belive having paid Security Office
could help - but I am happy to get to know why I might be under wrong
impression.

I also doesnt know if there's any chance of directing any monye from
this year's budget towards improving that situation, but I also like
the idea of 'targeted' funding, where people gets a chance to say
where they want the money to be used, some sort of money democracy, I
would say.
