Delays at Dublin Airport: Discussion
Kieran O'Donnell (Limerick City, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
Today's meeting was robust but constructive and I thank the delegates for attending. They have been very open to the discussion. It is not too harsh to say there was a cock-up in regard to the rostering at Dublin Airport last week. There were 17 trainees who had not been certified. That was the major source of the cock-up. Then there were the further 20 people who were absent, which compounded the problem. The witnesses are confident for the current week. I assume they have checked, double-checked and treble-checked the rostering system and that it is foolproof. Is that correct?
