To go back to the questions I asked earlier, reference was made to the need for a more co-ordinated approach between Belfast and the Irish Government. I referred to a number of destinations from where flights come to Belfast. Will the witnesses elaborate on what they believe should be a more co-ordinated approach? I am not clear on what exactly they feel is the best way forward in dealing with this issue. We have one set of rules to do with Dublin, Cork and Shannon and there is a totally different set of rules in Belfast. Who do the witnesses say should be responsible for this co-ordinated approach if it is not within the jurisdiction of the Government here to do it with regard to Belfast?
