If I may make a brief point. I do not see it like that. I agree that it is important to see growth at Shannon. I have an interest in my local area. My question was about the overall situation. Cork Airport is a State airport as well. I am looking at the global picture and I wonder what will be the situation in 20 years' time. What airports will exist in Ireland then? What infrastructure is required to maximise the potential for the country? I have an interest in Knock airport but I want to hear Ms Hynes's vision for the future.
