Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
General Scheme of the Air Navigation and Transport Bill 2019: Discussion
Mr. Ronan Gallagher:
I pointed out earlier that if we were to do nothing, both the IAA and CAR would have to invest in additional resources because the industry is growing and they would have to match it. Wherever costs will go up, they will go up in response to service demands of the industry. The unit cost of the organisations will not change whereas the total cost will. That is the main cost driver, not the restructuring. All we are doing is a little like we do in Departments - move functions around to better align them with the policy objectives.
