Thank you, Madam Chair. I would just like to reiterate that what we are talking about here is the expenditure and not the cost recovery in this supplementary. I'm sure the Minister is prepared to and the government is prepared to listen to advice of the committee on cost recovery. As I said, if it were to be an airport improvement fee it would have to come forward as legislation. The government cannot institute an airport improvement fee without it coming back to this House for approval. So there will be an opportunity for debate if that would be the method that the government would choose. I just wanted to make sure that that was clearly understood, Madam Chair.
