Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

The matter raised by the Deputy regarding the Dublin Airport Authority's (DAA) contracts of employment falls within the operational and management responsibilities of DAA and I have referred the question to the company for direct reply. I ask the Deputy to contact my office if a reply has not been received within ten working days.
