Ms Niamh McCarthy:

Yes, to Greenore, Drogheda or Rosslare. We have had communication from Rosslare. I am not sure what I can do as a tour operator. The port officials contacted us seeking to find out how they could help with this issue. I told them to contact who they need to. Greenore and Drogheda ports have space whereas the cruise ships have to come to Dublin. They are only here for a day so it is really not an option for them to drive passengers from Rosslare to Dublin for a day tour. That is the issue. The other ports are willing to take the extra business but they are also very aware that this is a dark cloud hanging over their business.
