Government / Politics
Swedish term or phrase: i ett läge där avbockning av gjorda besök anses ointressant
"i ett läge där avbockning av gjorda besök anses ointressant"
I translated this as "in the situation where a cancellation of completed visits is considered irrelevant"
but I am not comfortable with this, and think that I may have misunderstood the original. Have I missed something in the meaning?
