The Taoiseach:
I am, but it is important the context is made very clear. The story is suggesting there was a rescheduling to do with the match. There was not. The alternative would have had me in at midday and the way I went, I came in at 8 a.m. I had nothing to do with it. I do not book the travel, so it was a nonsense story.
In terms of security, remember that these were booked a week in advance. There are issues in the Middle East, as we all know, in terms of cancellation of flights and challenges. That was the precautionary approach those who were booking the flights took. That is it.
