Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 24 November 2005
34 Mr. Kehoe asked the Minister for Transport the position regarding the development of a second terminal at Dublin Airport, when he anticipates work will begin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36019/05]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, the Dublin Airport Authority, DAA, announced two months ago its medium term plans for new infrastructural provision at Dublin Airport, including a new second terminal and other related developments.
I am informed by the DAA that it is working to meet the Government objective to have T2 operational in 2009. Currently, the DAA is involved in tender processes for the selection of project management and design consultants and separately commissioned cost consultants for the project. I understand that announcements on these can be expected early in the new year.
