My question will not even take 30 seconds. I have one question only and may come back in depending on the Tánaiste's reply. It is essential for companies that wish to recognised as EU air carriers to be majority owned and controlled by EU legal or natural persons. The European Commission has underlined this. Can the Tánaiste explain the position of Aer Lingus on the one hand and Ryanair on the other in that regard?
