Ms Mary Considine, CEO of the Shannon Group, and her board have made an application to the Department for a public service obligation, PSO, service to operate from Shannon Airport to Schiphol Airport. This service is crucial, all the more so since the advent of Brexit which has been a disaster. We in the west feel geographically peripheral. This matter has been with the Department for some time. PSO services are part of national aviation policy. Where is the application at? Can the Minister of State give a positive indication of where it is going?
