The aviation sector is facing an unprecedented challenge. Most people acknowledge the need to suspend international travel at this time as part of the State's pandemic measures, but it is also recognised that this puts significant pressure on an already crippled sector. Aviation workers need financial support and protection during this time. The sector also needs a survival and recovery plan to be put in place to help it to recover when it is safe to travel again. I ask the Minister of State to outline her plans to support the recovery of the sector.
