I compliment Mr. O’Leary’s father, who apparently travelled business class to London but made sure that Mr. O’Leary travelled with the great unwashed on a ferry. Good. It probably gave him the grounding he has today.

He accepts that the noise issue in Dublin Airport is a DAA problem. I went to a house in St. Margaret’s at 4.30 a.m. I stood in the sitting room of the house chatting to a few people. I believe it was Councillor Joe Newman who brought me out there. We were chatting away and, the next thing, an aircraft would take off and we could no longer hear one another in the room.
