I have done so, but I will repeat what I said. The window to feed into the issues paper lasts until 31 December. That paper will form part of the public consultation, which will start in quarter 1 of next year. The committee will want to hold hearings on the matter and, therefore, we could consider the timing. Once the consultation process is open, I envisage it lasting for six to eight weeks to give people time to feed into it and to get stakeholders with an interest in the matter to think again about how we can best use Shannon Airport, Cork Airport, Ireland West Airport Knock, Donegal Airport and other regional airports and redirect traffic.
