Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Engagement with the Irish Air Line Pilots' Association

Mr. Evan Cullen:

It is important. When the ICAO come to Dublin, it does not talk to the stakeholders. It just checks that Ireland has the regulations and the required personnel in place to do it. It does not go out and check the practice. It is the practice that is the problem, not the policies. All the manuals and paperwork are perfect but the issue is down to how the organisation deals with the stakeholders in the industry.
