Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 January 2010
513 Deputy Fergus O’Dowd asked the Minister for Transport the number of meetings he had with the Dublin Airport Authority in 2009; the communications he has had with the Dublin Airport Authority in relation to the new terminal two building; the issues discussed; the outcome of such contacts; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1501/10]
View answerI have had a number of personal contacts with the current DAA Chairman in 2009 and in August last I received a briefing from the DAA Chairman and Chief Executive on State Airport matters. In addition senior Departmental officials are in constant contact with the Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) on a range of issues including the roll out of Terminal 2 (T2), which is due to open in November this year. As much of those contacts cover matters of a commercially sensitive and confidential nature I do not propose to provide a detailed account of those contacts.
