That is something that needs to be out there in terms of those kind of costs because Aer Lingus, Ryanair and various others will be queueing to come in to us. It is important that we know there is going to be X increase to them and what they are going to be getting for that. There needs to be a payback. The sense from the very basic research I have done is that there is pushback. Whoever it is coming from is clearly not in the consultative forum because Mr. Gallagher said the response was neutral or positive there. That is just not what I am getting and I have only been in this role for a couple of days. Is there a conflict of interest between safety and economic interest?
