Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 July 2016
425. Deputy Billy Kelleher asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if, and when, there is a dispute between the Commission for Aviation Regulation and an agent operator, since the commission is answerable to the Houses of the Oireachtas, does it consult with another body before making a decision on how to proceed. [23243/16]
View answerThe Commission for Aviation Regulation was established under the Aviation Regulation Act 2001 to regulate certain aspects of the aviation and travel trade sectors in Ireland, and its functions include the licensing of tour operators and travel agents.
The questions raised are operational matters for the Commission for Aviation Regulation. Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's question to the Commission for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
