Questions (164)

Bernard Durkan

Question:

164. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the extent to which he is satisfied that any takeover of Aer Lingus will involve adequate protection for national interests such as continued access without restriction to all existing routes and landing provisions at airports worldwide and fundamental to the viability of the airline into the future; if he is satisfied that the regional airports are likely to be sufficiently provided for in such a way as to ensure not only their existence in the future but their continued growth and expansion; if he is satisfied that staffing levels are not reduced thereby restricting the scale and operations of the airline; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I refer the Deputy to my reply to today's Priority PQs 123 and 124 concerning the State's shareholding in Aer Lingus and  the recent approaches from IAG.
