Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
National Aviation Policy: Ryanair
Mr. Eddie Wilson:
There could be a long-term answer to this as well. It is not just about eliminating air traffic control in the countries in question. What is proposed could be done over time. One could run down the number of air traffic controllers as they enter a single system and pay them out until retirement. However, that requires a coherent policy, which we are not willing to apply. As Mr. O'Leary said, only a strengthened and emboldened European Commission could do something like that.
