It is regrettable, to say the least. Mr. Jacobs mentioned that 35% or more of people are using the bus for the airport. That works for some people but, for an awful lot of people, the option is not there. It is the only international airport on the island with no rail. The bus is fine but it does not suit an awful lot of people. We need to see the metro happen but it will take time. What is the timescale in that regard? What engagement has there been and where are we going on all of that? It is one of the major issues that people have.
