I welcome the fact not so much that the Minister has broken a promise, but that he has withdrawn the threat to sell off Coillte and indeed the State holding in Aer Lingus. Throughout this process the Minister has said that he will only consider the sale of what he deems non-strategic assets.

Does the Minister accept that Coillte is a strategic asset and the remaining State holding in Aer Lingus is equally strategic?
