Over the course of the weekend, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport indicated he was about to review the State Airports Act. He talked about the privatisation or the potential lease of airports at Shannon and Cork. The notion of privatisation of those airports or the lease arrangement of those airports is not contained in the State Airports Act. Is it proposed to introduce legislation to update or amend that Act to provide for the privatisation or the leasing of those facilities?
