It is a funds issue. When we are talking about 3,000 planes, €80 billion worth of merchandise that has been leased out and 50% of this business being in this State, we need to focus on how we maximise its potential. A review of this industry by the Department is needed to examine how we could maximise the potential without jeopardising the funds we are currently getting from it. I ask the Minister of State to arrange for such a review and for it to be presented to this committee prior to the enactment of next year's finance Bill.
