	Dáil Éireann - Volume 428 - 23 March, 1993 - Adjournment Debate. - Guinness Peat Aviation Equity Issue.
		Guinness Peat Aviation plays a critical role in terms of the development of the new aviation cluster in the Shannon region.
		This aviation cluster has already begun to spawn encouraging sub-supply industries locally in the Shannon region; indeed, the spillover even extends to the University of Limerick, which has ambitious plans to further develop its aviation engineering faculty.
		In looking at the contribution GPA has made to the Shannon zone and to the mid-west region in particular, we see that the GPA group has direct employment of 300 with very sizeable spin-off benefits in terms of taxation, dividends, overheads, investments and contracts in respect of maintenance of aircraft and engines.

	Dáil Éireann - Volume 428 - 23 March, 1993 - Adjournment Debate. - Guinness Peat Aviation Equity Issue.
		However, from the point of view of an investor, if the company can ultimately return to profitability it is perhaps the best time in terms of the business cycle to take out equity, since, in the event of success the potential returns could be phenomenal just as the current risks are substantial.
		This aviation cluster has already begun to spawn encouraging sub-supply industries locally in the Shannon region; indeed, the spillover even extends to the University of Limerick, which has ambitious plans to further develop its aviation engineering faculty.
		A valuable cluster of aviation jobs is in place and I would conclude that the risk, subject to tough bargaining on behalf of the taxpayer, is probably worth taking.
