Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Issues facing the Aviation Industry: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Donal Moriarty:
I wish to reiterate that the aviation recovery task force published a report in July 2020. The concept of route support to maintain core connectivity and restore connectivity was one of the key recommendations. That recommendation has not as yet been followed through but the specifics of the recommendation as set out in that report are still valid. We note that they focus in particular on regional connectivity and incentivising the earlier and sustainable return of that connectivity.
