Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: With my tongue firmly in my cheek, I am wondering why does the planning condition that imposes a cap matter so much when there are other planning conditions not being adhered to, some would say on a daily basis?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I seem to recall that the last day Mr. Jacobs appeared before the committee, he said that at the Christmas period DAA would get very close to the 32 million cap. Who will be the fall guy? Will it be the incidental charter flights? Will it be Ryanair? Will it be Aer Lingus? Who is DAA in talks with, cautioning them about their flights? Will people even get home for Christmas?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: We know that, but what about Shannon Airport? Has Mr. Jacobs talked to Mary Considine?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: Last week, Michael O'Leary said that he reckons it could take up to five years to get this planning straightened out. I am sure he is listening today. What would Mr. Jacobs say to him? He is worried about his base in Dublin Airport. Is that a realistic timeline?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: There are airlines selling bargain basement airfares out of Dublin Airport and other Irish airports. Parking charges at Dublin Airport far exceed any city centre car park at the moment. They are €40 per day in the short-term car park - that is a capped price - and €16.50 per day in the express red and €14 per day in the holiday blue car parks. From a consumer point of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA (19 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I understand the job Mr. Jacobs has to do. He has to run Dublin Airport and Cork Airport. He is here to speak for them. However, when he speaks about sustainability, is it not a bit incongruent, perhaps disingenuous, to talk about sustainability at a time when it is unsustainable to have all these flights coming out of Dublin without adding an extra brick, pane of glass or iron...

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (26 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I raise the issue of the supply of the drug Ozempic. Someone called into one of my advice clinics this week. She has been prescribed Ozempic by her GP and had gone to many pharmacists in County Clare and beyond trying to get this all-important medicine. When she went into one pharmacy, the pharmacist looked her up and down and asked her if she had diabetes or was obese. He asked this...

Pre-European Council: Statements (26 Jun 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I must gather my thoughts and breath. I will not speak for too long. I have just left a committee meeting. As others stated, it is very important that the Irish position with regard to the ongoing war in Gaza - it is not being fought in Israel - is very much reiterated at the European Council, especially the humanitarian crisis that continues to unfold there. I imagine that the...
