That is utterly dreadful. We might have to take disciplinary proceedings afterwards, but not at the moment.

Mr. Henry has stated that he is listening. We all get an understanding of the problem in that everyone would like to see a more distributed, dissipated - whatever term one wishes to use - a more logical, regional infrastructure as regards transport in general and, specifically, airlines. In speaking to DAA or anyone else on this, as was mentioned earlier, Dublin Airport is a hub. We are not competing with Shannon. The issue is that we are competing with Vienna, London, Paris and elsewhere. That is where the slots will go, and maybe that is easy from them to say. I am wondering how one bridges that gap where we can have this conversation. We can go round and round the gardens on this, which happens quite often. We can all do that from the point of view that it will sound okay, particularly to a local audience, but that it will never actually happen. How does one make it happen?
