First, I express my disappointment that Deputy Micheál Martin did not have a copy of the Evening Echo when he was canvassing in Rathgar last week. I am glad he was canvassing there and not in Cork-----

Will the Deputy please get on with it?

Is Deputy Jerry Buttimer questioning the editorial content of the Evening Echo?

I am aware of the reaction Deputy Micheál Martin received when he was canvassing in Rathgar.

I was in Ranelagh actually.

On the Irish Aviation Authority Bill, the Dublin Airport Authority has written to Cork Airport seeking redundancies. Obviously, there is huge concern in Cork regarding the airport-----

Is the Deputy asking about an aviation Bill?

It is important that we allay the concerns of workers and recognise that Cork Airport is a hub and a gateway to the south. When will that legislation be brought before the House?

That is a Topical Issue matter.

I can inform Deputy Jerry Buttimer that discussions and consultations on the Irish Aviation Authority Bill are ongoing. It will be next year before the Bill is published.
