Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour)

That will not bring much comfort to Deputy Cuffe and the Green Party. I revert to what I suspect Deputy Cuffe is interested in, that is, whether there will be any change to the practice at Shannon Airport. Do I correctly summarise the Minister by saying there has been no change, but there might be a change in the future, and that such a change will only occur if the Air Navigation Acts are amended? When will the Cabinet subcommittee conclude its consideration of the issue? Is there a deadline, or is it cruelly misleading the Green Party into believing it has had an impact on changing the practice at Shannon? I do not know why the question is so difficult to answer.
