Mr. Pádraig Ó Céidigh:

It is a very interesting and entrepreneurial idea. It is thinking outside the box. It also sets a challenge that is outside the box and is well worth investigating. I know all about setting up and building an airline. It is a huge challenge. It is a different business model from an airport model. Having said that, we would not be the first airport to consider doing something like that. It is worth looking at and doing a feasibility study into the proposal. Perhaps we might take it away and get back to the committee on it at some stage. Establishing an airline is a huge task and I am certainly open to looking at the opportunity. I thank Senator Dooley for raising it because it is the kind of thinking we need. It is outside-the-box stuff we need for Shannon. Sin é, a Chathaoirligh.
