91. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport in view of the recent report from the Irish air accident investigation unit into the Manx2 Cork crash, which identified serious concerns in relation to the regulation of aviation in Europe, if he will outline the Irish regulatory agency or body responsible to ensure that the terms and conditions under which aircraft are operated, or flight crew are employed and managed, will not have any adverse impact on the safety of passengers such as we saw evidenced in the Manx2 accident in Cork; and the steps he will take to ensure that companies in the aviation business will not be able to use aircraft or flight crew under commercial or personal contract arrangements that are not transparent about their potential impact on the safety of aircraft operations.
