The Taoiseach indicated last week that he had commissioned a review of the operation of pre-clearance at Dublin and Shannon airports. I understand that this is not an issue for the Irish authorities. How pre-clearance operates at both Shannon and Dublin airports is an issue for the US authorities. In that context, has the review been shelved? The pre-clearance facilities at both Shannon and Dublin airports are of major economic benefit to this country. Any threat to cease the operation of pre-clearance would harm this country, our citizens and the passengers who use both airports.
