Yes. As my colleagues, Senators Norris and Darragh O'Brien, both indicated, it should be spent on the pensions. The Government has rewarded the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport for the way it treated the Joint Committee on Transport and Communications by giving it another €350 million of pocket money to spend on electric trains and whatever else it wants. Connectivity is facilitated by aircraft. However, the Department sold the aircraft - wrongly, in my view - so why give it this money?
