Mr. Martin Murray:

As regards the air link, I will leave that to the aviation authority who are the experts looking at the mathematics.

As regards visas, Chinese visitors in particular are critical to the integrity of retail centres all over Ireland. If one looks at Dublin, it is my understanding that in some cases it could be up to a third of the actual business. Whether they come or not could seriously affect the viability of small retailers in particular. It is critical that we address the issue. I suggest that some senior administration figure who can co-ordinate - and who has both the clout to deliver and the resources to support - could make a big impact.
