The reason I am asking is the difficulties in Dublin, which are not unique to Dublin. Manchester has its own difficulties. The CEO at that airport fell on his sword as a result. Other big airports in the UK are also having difficulties with security. They are well documented in Dublin. These issues and the lengths of queues present an opportunity for Shannon in the very short term. I am intrigued by the extent to which Belfast has managed to hold on to any additional business that went its way during the pandemic. Those are my questions. I will not delay Mr. Henry any further. I congratulate him again and wish him the very best of luck in his tenure at Shannon Airport and in the Shannon Group more broadly. I am glad to hear that he views Shannon Airport as the key asset of the Shannon Group.
