There has been much talk about using the regional airports and ensuring there is a rebalancing. However, I get the point that the competition goes to Vienna, London or wherever else. Change in this regard will require State aviation policy and there is no point in going down that road today. The witnesses have made a promise today and we hope they can follow through on that because people require it to be done. That is the best message that can go out today and how we can restore confidence following the damage that was done. People want assurance that we will not have another incident like what happened last weekend and passengers will never again go through that type of scenario.
