I think I was here for the corresponding meeting last year, deputising for Deputy Ellis, who holds the transport brief, and here I am again. Last year I pointed out that I know Ms Jupp from her time working at Arthur Andersen many years ago. I knew then that she would go far and I know she is an exceptionally good chairperson of CIE so I have not been disappointed in any respect. I will not go through the same series of questions.

Is there anything Ms Jupp would like to happen at CIE that has not yet happened? Has anything occurred since she joined the board that she wishes had not occurred? It is good that the CIE group can access €110 million through a consortium of banks but will this meet revenue or capital expenditure?
