20 Mr. Deasy asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications the number of passengers that have used each of the regional airports in Ireland in each of the past three years. [14174/96]
The regional airports are owned and operated by private undertakings and are in fact in competition with each other and the State airports. Accordingly, the breakdown of traffic data is commercially sensitive and confidential to the companies concerned. In the circumstances, the Deputy will understand that I am not at liberty to supply the data requested. I can only suggest that he ask the airport companies themselves.
