Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Issues facing the Aviation Industry: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Donal Moriarty:

I just will add that our concern about the delay associated with the trial is based on history. Last November, a steering group was formed in the HSE for the purposes of looking at trialling antigen testing. It was to look at various environments, including international travel. That was more than seven months ago and nothing has happened. The committee will understand that we would have a concern with a fresh proposal for a pilot or a trial, when the last one has not progressed over an almost eight-month period at this point.
