View answerThe actions and statements of the CAR and the IAA in relation to the cancellation of services by the airline operator are matters for the agencies concerned having regard to their respective regulatory functions. I have forwarded the Deputy's question to each agency for direct reply. Please advise my office if you have not received a reply within 10 working days.
On the basis of my contacts with both agencies, I am satisfied that they have properly discharged their regulatory functions in this instance.
