I might ask the team members replying to keep the responses short, if possible. I will try to keep my questions short. I thank the DAA for coming in. It has been absolute disaster. I know this. I have heard about it. I come from Roscommon-Galway and Knock Airport is our main airport. This affects not just families who are on holiday. People doing business have cancelled their flights this week. People in business in Ireland have cancelled their flights because of the fear of having to wait four or five hours out of a working day. That again has a huge impact, as my colleague has mentioned, on our reputation.

I have a question for Mr. Philips. Dublin Airport Authority is a semi-State organisation. Is that correct?
