Ms Ashley Connelly:

I fully agree with the Deputy in that members in Shannon have found they have to fly within a six-month period, meaning they are now out of what is known as "recency". They will have to conduct a full retraining programme due to the lack of activity out of Shannon. It is unjust and unfair that our members in Shannon are being treated less favourably that their colleagues in Dublin and Cork. Fórsa takes that quite seriously and it is an issue on which we continue to engage with the company.
