Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Security, Recruitment and Training at Dublin Airport: Discussion

Mr. Kenny Jacobs:

We always explore alternatives. We look to standardise things from a security point of view. Would we generally support anyone opening up a way in and out of the airport in any part of the airfield? No, we would not. That is a whole different type of security and safety conversation. We look to standardise the operation. It is up to the individual agent to say whether it wants to use platinum services. Other options are available, but I would need to come back to the Deputy to be able say what all those individual options are. It is up to the handling agent to decide how it wants to do it. It is part of its operation, so it is probably more a question for handling agents than for me. There are other ways they can do it. I can come back to the Deputy to highlight how it works in general.
