Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 25 September 2014
288. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the current debt level at the Dublin Airport Authority; if he will provide a breakdown of this debt as it pertains to Dublin, Shannon and Cork airports; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36323/14]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) has statutory responsibility to operate, manage and develop Dublin and Cork Airports and, as provided in the recently enacted State Airports (Shannon Group) Act 2014, Shannon Group has similar responsibilities in respect of Shannon Airport since 5 September last. As such the debt level at all three airports is a matter for DAA and Shannon Group respectively.
The 2013 Annual Report and Accounts for the DAA and Shannon Airport Authority (which had responsibility for Shannon Airport at that time) was laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas and can be found in the Library of the Houses.
