Senator Paddy Burke referred to the very important issue of Dublin Port and cruise liners. The decision made by the port could have a knock-on effect on economic activity throughout the country, not just in Dublin. I hope it will reconsider its decision. The Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ross, should demand that it do so. Cobh and Cork have benefited from the great work done by the Port of Cork. Cruise liners should not be discouraged from coming to the capital city; rather, they should be encouraged. I hope we will send that message from this Chamber. I will be happy for the Minister to come to the House to discuss the matter.
