Joint Oireachtas Committee on Enterprise, Tourism and Employment

Engagement with the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission

2:00 am

Mr. Brian McHugh:

What we will have seen in Europe when we look at markets where consumers have benefited hugely from liberation and from letting airlines have way more freedom, is the airline industry. On the idea that we should in some way instruct or put restrictions on airlines as to what they should price, in the long run the consumer would be worse off.
