I will repeat the question I asked and which Deputy Yates asked three times. Will the Minister accept there is no hindrance, legal or otherwise, that she has to overcome to invest money infrastructurally in the three airports, the £500 million she mentioned? She repeatedly said in the House that she was disallowed by the EU from doing so. We have now acknowledged that she was wrong in saying that and that she can now invest State money – all she has to do is convince her Cabinet colleagues to do so – and that it should be included in the national development plan along with roads, sewers and everything else except airports.
Will the Minister confirm or deny the reported U-turn on the sale of Great Southern Hotels? I am looking at a statement by her colleague, the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform, who said the Great Southern Hotels would not be sold. I presume he was intending to gazzump his constituency colleague, Deputy Healy-Rae, on that matter. Will the Minister tell us if a decision has been made to sell the land surrounding the hotels but not the hotels themselves?
