Following an open tender competition, Indecon Economic consultants were appointed to undertake the Review of the Regulatory Regime for Airport Charges in Ireland at a cost of €125,470 excluding VAT.
Given that this report is now the subject of a public consultation, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on its recommendations at this point. Once this consultation phase is complete by 29 July, I along with my Department, will consider all of the submissions received along with the recommendations of the report with the intention of finalising and publishing a policy on airport charges regulation by the end of the year.
