I thank Mr. Ó Ríordáin for his informative statement. I wish to ask a couple of questions, particularly on the new runway. According to the daa's report, it has already commenced the process of actively engaging with the community. Will Mr. Ó Ríordáin update us on how that is progressing? Has agreement been reached? Mr. Ó Ríordáin stated that an environmental impact study would be carried out. Is the daa conducting that study or will it engage an independent body? He also stated that the daa did not intend to use compulsory purchase orders, CPOs, for any house. There are 40 homes in question. If some families do not want to move, how will the daa be fixed then?
