I think the cost may be

overall more than we're paying at the moment. It all depends. We would have to consider the cost of the office space for the staff and the number of staff involved, but certainly if Government took over the whole job from the airlines and we were called upon to play a part, we certainly would.

MR HO: Yes, I just follow what I have asked earlier. Therefore, it seems to me that you think if you are asked to do the job you need extra staff, in other words.

DI: Yes. I foresee that what will happen is that we will
