asked the Minister for Transport and Power whether the scheme for the training of Aer Lingus pilots in this country, being prepared by his Department in conjunction with Aer Lingus and the Department of Defence, is yet completed; and at what date he expects the training of Aer Lingus pilots under this scheme to begin.

I hope that a new scheme for the initial training by Department of Defence of pilots required by Aer Lingus and Aerlinte will be completed before the next intake of trainees towards the end of the year. The final part of the training will, as at present, be given by the Companies.
