Issues Affecting the Aviation Sector: Discussion (Resumed)

I thank the witnesses. I will start with a question for both Ryanair and Aer Lingus. Since we last met there has been some progress on the traffic light system and some commitment regarding pre-departure testing, but not much movement. However, there has been significant backward movement in the spread of Covid-19 across the Continent. In a best case scenario and if everything Mr. Wilson and Mr. Moriarty prescribed this morning happened tomorrow, what will the aviation landscape resemble in the next six and 12 months in Ireland and across Europe, and further if they wish, and what are the implications for their operations in terms of staff and commitment to the sector in Ireland?
