Denis Naughten (Longford-Roscommon, Fine Gael)

What discussions have taken place on the privatisation of Aer Lingus and when does the Minister hope to make a decision on it? Has he discussed the timetable with Aer Lingus? Has the Minister raised with the company the downgrading of the level of service being provided by Aer Lingus at Shannon Airport? Has the Minister discussed the scandal of pilots being paid to stay at home rather than come to work? Does the Minister not consider that a serious misuse of State moneys?
