Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Irish Air Navigation Service: Chairperson Designate

Mr. Bryan Bourke:

If we get to a position where through absence, illness or fatigue, we do not have enough air traffic controllers, that is what we do. It sounds weird but that is what we do because it is all about safety. The aircraft are put in a hold. There was one further shutdown of approximately 30 minutes on Tuesday that did not result in any delays or holds.
