I thank Mr. Walsh for that.
Brexit has really reminded us that Ireland is a peripheral nation in Europe. This is very much so along the west coast of Ireland, where we have three large airports. Knowing Irish aviation like he does, what role does Mr. Walsh envisage for the likes of Shannon Airport going forward, when we reconfigure our national aviation policy, and hopefully knock on the doors of some of Mr Walsh's International Air Travel Association, IATA, members to try to get them to fly in and out of there?
