Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Shannon Group: Chairperson Designate (7 Oct 2021)

Gerry Horkan: ...the chair of the Shannon Group is non-executive, which is hands-off as much as it is hands-on, and that the chair is not a chief executive. From the perspective of a transport committee, and really from an Ireland Inc. perspective, it is not Dublin versus Shannon, which Mr. Ó Céidigh referenced earlier. I know that because I listened to all of the contributions in my office....

Seanad: Aviation Sector: Statements (21 Jun 2021)

Gerry Horkan: ...questioning this myself. We must ensure that we are not at the bottom of the queue, at the bottom of the list, when airlines look at what routes to reopen.

I welcome the Minister’s comments stating that he has written to the Minister for...
