On Ms Mannion's answer, and it backs up what Deputy Munster's point, would it be ideal if there was the same response across all European countries, specifically in relation to protocols when cancellations occur, that wherever the strongest legislation for consumers or airline passengers exists it should be the universal policy of the European Commission? The EU Commissioner will come before us in a couple of weeks. I think it is a good idea to have an EU-wide protocol because that sounds like a good idea as it would avoid differences of approach in different jurisdictions.
