My next set of questions is for all the witnesses. I want to get as clear a picture as possible. I am sorry if I am repeating questions I missed at the start of the meeting. First, what is the full picture regarding baggage handling and lost luggage? We are hearing that this issue will continue to arise at least until the end of the summer. Is that the case?

Second, what is the amount of lost or unclaimed luggage on site today and what is the throughput of that luggage? Is the number being added to or reduced on a day-to-day basis? I am wondering whether it is an accumulating problem or a reducing problem. What advice can the witnesses give to people who have travelled to Dublin Airport and are now in Ireland and want to pursue their lost luggage? I am aware that some of that baggage is airside, some is landside and some of it will be couriered. People are not being encouraged to go to the airport to collect it. The witnesses from the DAA might take those questions first. I do not know whether they have oversight of the Ryanair end of the things and an overall picture.
