I welcome the Minister of State's comments. It is important that we get the strategic routes such as Shannon-Heathrow and the north American traffic such as to Boston and JFK. Will the Minister of State confirm that she has had engagement with Aer Lingus with regard to providing supports to them to protect those strategic routes? If so, when does she expect an announcement on that matter?
