I know exactly what transfer passengers are. I do not mean to be smart. Mr. Jacobs says that according to his interpretation, the DAA is fully compliant. I have searched the original planning permission and the appeal to An Bord Pleanála and neither of them states anything about surface capacity, excluding transfer passengers or only counting them once. The permission states that with the conditionality of the permission DAA applied for, the total combined capacity for terminals 1 and 2 is 32 million passengers. Mr. Jacobs has now excluded transfer passengers and is only counting transit passengers once, as if they flew through and did not impact any of the conditions with regard to facilities, parking, roads, water or energy. What is Mr. Jacobs's interpretation based on?
