Aviation Action Plan: Statements.

Shane Ross (Independent)
I am just going down the runway.
The other 51% will be distributed in such a way that no one will be able to touch them. The House has heard some scaremongering this afternoon. It is, "We are awfully worried about the slots. We are going to protect them and the brand." Nothing is more calculated to scare off any potential investor than this sort of talk. He will not get rid of the slots unless they are unprofitable. He will not get rid of the brand unless it is valuable.
