Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 11 October 2022
550. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science if there is a policy regarding the appropriate use of domestic flights in his Department and bodies under the aegis of the Department. [50120/22]
View answerThe Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science applies best value practices when sourcing travel arrangements, either domestic or international. The usage of domestic flights is exceedingly rare. We do not believe the requirement for a specific Department policy exists at the present time. Should that situation alter, the Department would of course review the matter and take any appropriate steps that may be necessary.
Attached are the contact details for the non-commercial aegis bodies of this Department, who can be directly contacted regarding their policy on the appropriate use of domestic flights.
