Absolutely. On airport charges, when it comes to the appropriate time the airlines and airports line up and have a row, a conclusion is reached and everyone moves on. Is that a sustainable way of coming up with charges when we are looking at long-term investment needs in Dublin Airport with regard to underground tunnels and new canopies along with the needs of Cork Airport, Shannon Airport and other airports? Do we need to look at different funding models or a different way of coming up with airport charges? What are Mr. Walsh's recommendations in that regard?
