Vol. 142 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cork Airport.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will now make an announcement on the provision of airport facilities for Cork at Ahenesk, Midleton; and, if not, when he expects to be able to do so.

An inspection of possible sites of Cork airport has been made. A report is at present being prepared for submission to the Government. Until the Government have considered the report, I will not be in a position to make any statement in the matter.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state whether the same meteorological tests are being carried out on other proposed sites for Cork airport as have already been carried out at Farmers Cross and Ahenesk; and, if so, if he will give the locations of the proposed sites.

Meteorological tests were carried out at Ballygarvan and at Ahenesk. It has not been found necessary to have tests carried out at other sites.
