Shannon Airport is outside the DAA and it also has the necessity to raise liquidity and invest. The Minister of State's comments on this amendment and section specifically reference the DAA. What are the implications of this for Shannon Airport Authority? What provision is made for a situation where that authority wants to raise liquidity? Is it dealt with differently or is there a different provision? Must it seek the permission of the Ministers Finance, Transport and Public Expenditure and Reform in the same way as the DAA?
