Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

The decisions taken by the Government on a second terminal at Dublin Airport do not require further legislation. It will be dealt with under existing legislation. The provision of external equity for Aer Lingus, should that be the analysis of the advisers appointed by the Government, does not require further legislation. It is already provided for in the Aer Lingus Act 2004.
