Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Issues Affecting the Aviation Sector: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Tony Holohan:

Again, our advice will be predicated on assessments we make at a point in time of whatever we think are the risks attached to any form of activity. In this case, we are obviously talking about international travel. We could well be in a situation whereby the risk of travel into this country in relative terms from red countries is much greater coming up to Christmas than it is at the moment. That arises in a situation whereby Ireland, in effect, has been red for a period. There is reason to believe that if we make progress we will change that status. We could change that status significantly if we make the progress we intend to make.
