I understand the Deputy's point, but my opinion on the matter differs because the assurances received from America cover all of the various aeroplanes it uses. Consider the allegation of extraordinary rendition that was put to me. The American Government has given us assurances that that is not taking place in the State. These assurances cover the various aircraft which pass through the jurisdiction.
