Ceist:

128 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Public Enterprise if she will make a statement on the future of Team Aer Lingus. [22690/98]

I propose to answer Questions Nos. 76 and 128 together.

I refer the Deputies to my reply to Question No. 43 which was taken on 15 October 1998.

I am informed by Aer Lingus that the sale of TEAM Aer Lingus to FLS Aerospace is expected to be completed shortly.

In relation to the TEAM employees who to date have not accepted terms for the transfer of employment to FLS, I am informed that 42 have been accommodated with positions in the airline matching their skills. I understand that Aer Lingus management is interviewing the remaining 63 employees with a view to establishing whether there are other job possibilities within the airline.
