The rail or metro connection to the airport has been a huge issue for decades. We are all very hopeful that the current plan will be advanced. Has Mr. Jacobs had any engagement from the Department of Transport or the different stakeholders involved? Have conversations in this regard begun with the DAA around how it is going to look? Not many people know the fascinating fact that beneath terminal 2, a space was built for a metro connection to the city, which has just been lying idle. It is incredible that this untapped resource has been there for so long. Everybody, not only in Dublin but around the country, is watching with great interest to see how this is progressing.

Is there anything happening in that regard?
