Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Appointment Process for Chair of Irish Aviation Authority: Engagement with Department of Transport

Mr. Fintan Towey:

No, these were internal discussions on the challenges being addressed by the IAA and the need to have an appropriate chair in place as quickly as possible. It was in the context of those discussions that the acknowledgment arose that there would be a difficulty in not having a chair. I am reluctant to claim credit for the proposal that we should appoint an interim chair though I do not deny the possibility. It may well have been the Secretary General or Mr. Ronan Gallagher.
