Clare Daly: 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...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Air Accident Investigations (18 Feb 2014)

Clare Daly: The question is about the Irish air accident investigation unit's investigation into the Manx2 accident in Cork, particularly the lessons that have been learned from the analysis. The report identifies concerns about the lack of regulation in the aviation sector in Europe. I wonder what lessons the Department has drawn from it in an Irish context.

Ceisteanna - Questions - Priority Questions: Air Accident Investigations (18 Feb 2014)

Clare Daly: As the Minister indicated, there was much work put into this incredibly comprehensive report which identified the lack of regulation that existed in Spain. It also pinpointed a very complex arrangement of companies with apparent responsibility for operating the aircraft, as well as the circumstances under which some of the crew had to operate. The Minister is aware that some of the...

In an Irish context, does the Irish Aviation...

Other Questions: Airport Security (18 Feb 2014)

Clare Daly: Recent questions to the Minister for Defence have revealed that almost once a day on average the Defence Forces are called out to back up the Garda Síochána at Shannon Airport. What does the Minister think of this, given that not one single US aircraft has been searched? Is this not somewhat mad and does it not undermine the viability of Shannon as a commercial airport?

Other Questions: Airport Security (18 Feb 2014)

Clare Daly: Although the Minister uses the term "on occasion", on average it is actually approximately once a day. Does he not think it is an incredible irony that legislation is used against protesters and yet not one single US aeroplane has been searched by the relevant authorities? He also speaks about the airport's commercial viability not being undermined, but is it not strange that a 79 year old...

Other Questions: Airport Security (18 Feb 2014)

Clare Daly: I do not agree with the Minister. For the Official Report, I note that citizens have an international obligation to speak out about wrongdoing and what has gone on in respect of the US military war machine. Citizens such as Margaretta D'Arcy are to be complimented on sacrificing themselves for the greater good by speaking out against that injustice and the use of Shannon Airport for...
