No. I am not going to say that. That Irish Ferries has pulled a route is deeply regrettable and very unfortunate. It is something I wish had never happened. The Department has not made any final decision. It is monitoring the position on a daily basis and I will report to the Government on the matter before the end of February. We do not want to make commitments that might have implications that might not be beneficial in the long run.
