Chairman:
That is no problem. A route support scheme for aviation between Cork and Shannon is worth €20 million. We understand that, at the end of February, the scheme got approval from Europe because state aid rules did not apply. Has the Minister of State received any applications from Shannon Airport as yet in terms of those specific routes and getting access to that fund? What is the process by which the airport will be able to get access to the fund?
