The Minister is aware that SIPTU members at Aer Lingus and at three State airports have voted for industrial action up to and including strike action. The threat of strike action can have a damaging impact on our tourism industry. It affects sentiment towards Ireland and discourages people who might be looking at Ireland as a possible holiday destination. What action does the Minister propose to take to try to resolve the threat that now exists as a result of the SIPTU vote? The Minister is well aware that the situation relates to the Irish airlines superannuation scheme.
