I welcome this measure. I want to take up what Deputy Ó Snodaigh has said. This is very much an employment measure. In the context of Shannon Airport, our local international airport, we are promoting the area of aircraft maintenance. Leasing has been very much central to what is done at Shannon Airport on the industrial side.

The measure feeds in to job creation, which brings further revenues back to the Exchequer, which we use to provide the services we all want. The measure is very much welcome in the context of Shannon Airport in the mid-west. We have an industry up and running and this will further it in terms of job creation. It should never be lost.
