View answerIn August this year I advised ICTU that, following the deferral of a decision on airport separation, a more streamlined board structure would be more appropriate to the Cork and Shannon Airport Authority (CAA and SAA) Boards and that I proposed to appoint a nine member board to each airport authority. At that time I invited ICTU to nominate two individuals to undertake the role of temporary worker directors to the Boards of the CAA and SAA. ICTU have yet to nominate individuals to fill these positions.
