Given that we did not have an opportunity to debate the Schedule, I wish to raise the issue of the borrowing limits set down under section 6 thereof. The limit set down for Shannon Airport authority is €20 million. This has caused concern that it might constrain the board in what it can do. It is also provided in the Schedule that the Dublin Airport authority will appoint authorised officers to Shannon and Cork. Will they remain in office when the new authorities take over at Shannon and Cork or will Shannon and Cork appoint their own officers? People appointed by the Dublin authority might not be acceptable to Shannon and Cork.
