I ask the Deputy Leader to organise a debate regarding a specific action and issue related to The Gathering. We had a debate on it recently but airlines seem to be sabotaging the Government's initiative by price hikes, which in some cases have doubled. I have been contacted by people in Boston who paid $4,300 for flights and car hire for a family of five less than two years ago but the same package costs $8,000 this year.

That is a lot of money.

This tells us that the airlines are taking advantage of a great Government initiative. Events for The Gathering will take place in Kerry and throughout the country. How will people travel to The Gathering if they will be charged double the fare and rates of a couple of years ago? I ask the Deputy Leader to arrange the debate.
