I was looking for specific information there.

At the moment the Department of Justice and Equality is operating a level of control at the airport. It is saying it is waiting to pass that over to the Department of Health. The Minister for Health is saying it is not his responsibility and has passed the parcel to the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. Today the Dáil is passing a motion to allow structures to be built at our airports without planning permission. What is the DAA's understanding of what the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport is proposing where greater controls at our airports are concerned?
