Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Ports Development: Discussion
Mr. Barry O'Connell:
It is one entity at the port, but we have another entity which is close to the airport. It is what we call our inland port. That is purposed for what we call non-core activities. Because we import more than we export in volume terms, we tend to have a lot empty containers, so we tend to use the inland port for empty containers and, therefore, we do not take up vital port space for the transaction of goods.
