Mr. Paul Brandon:

On Brexit matters, we understand the UK regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority, will continue to recognise European Union Aviation Safety Agency based certificates for a further two years after 31 December. That is positive. It means Irish operators can continue to operate into and out of the UK and, likewise, UK operators, can continue to operate into and out of Ireland.

I do not have any information on the wider connectivity issue or the future open skies arrangement. It is obviously in the interests of both jurisdictions, as well as the EU, to maintain existing levels as close as possible post Brexit.
