I thank the Minister for clarifying the matter.
I agree with Senator Darragh O'Brien that rebranding merchants can cost significant sums of money. I do not know what they accomplish. They are concerned with images and logos, whereas the efficiency indicators to which the Minister referred relate to realities, which are much more important than images. I hope the change will not result in the airport incurring the expense of rebranding every sign or piece of paper in the airport, as Senator O'Brien pointed out. I tend to discount the argument that it will present a more modern image. The country must address real problems, rather than issues such as nomenclature, image and stationary.
