Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I reject these claims. They are grossly unfair and do a disservice to all the work the good people at Shannon Airport are doing in developing the airport. The Deputy should acknowledge their efforts. There are many opportunities to ensure Shannon has an all-round daily service to the US. There is potential to do a great deal more and Shannon Airport should grasp that opportunity. I am confident that the board and the workers in Shannon see this and are looking to the future.
