I appreciate that. I am delighted that the attempted corporate hijack by the management team has been averted and that the Government rejected the proposed buy-out. I too wish to be associated with the good wishes extended to the management team. Members of that team have done a good job and I hope they find satisfaction in their future careers. As Senator O'Toole observed, however, the success enjoyed by the management team at Aer Lingus was secured in conjunction with the unions, workers and the Government. It is not just three people who have created this situation.
