- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: Has the DAA looked at removing some of the cargo activity from Dublin?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: No, it is not up to them. It does not need to be up to them. If the DAA says, "No, sorry. We cannot take you", they will have to go to the next location. They will not land it in Schiphol.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I suggest that the DAA should manage its demand in a way that looked at the overall piece by taking cargo flights out of Dublin, say it is closed for cargo business and that the next business it will concentrate on are the passengers that need to be in Dublin. It will then be able to get a little more. If the DAA said to Fingal County Council that it was getting rid of its cargo business,...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I accept that.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: If we accept that there is activity on the landside with trucks on the M50, which is one of the constraints that is concerning to Fingal, and the DAA says it is getting rid of all the cargo, then it might get-----
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I suggest it would be quicker to get from Shannon Airport to Amazon's warehouse on the N7 than it would be to get from Dublin Airport across the M50 on many days.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: But you accept you will abide by that.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: When is the DAA planning to complete the work that would allow it to lift the cap from 32 million to whatever the demand might be? Where does he see that being pegged at?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I suspect that could not be the case. I suspect that it would have to be commensurate with the completion of-----
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I accept that. I started my comments by saying that the airside is creaking. I use the airport more than I would like to. If I could use Shannon more, I certainly would, and I do when I can.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: The stands I talked about at the south gate and otherwise being parked away from the buildings and people having to walk. The stories I hear are that it is less than optimal.
- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (28 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I, too, want to be associated with the remarks about the late Tras Honan, somebody whom I knew well. Long before I was elected to this House, I got to know her and I served with her on a number of committees. She was a forthright and brilliant woman, a wonderful character. She had a very insightful mind. There will be an opportunity, I am sure, here for us to express sympathies in greater...

- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (28 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: That is right. You have been unmasked.
- Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (29 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I join with the Leader in welcoming the students from St. Gerald's College, Castlebar. I thank Harry Gaughan for organising the visit. I had the pleasure of having him on an internship programme for several days a week as part of his schoolwork. He showed great interest and was anxious that his team would come and join him. His team is a big team. If Harry ever decides to go into...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Bus Services in Counties Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Wicklow: Discussion (29 Nov 2023)
Timmy Dooley: I will just use a very short portion of my time. If it is okay I will hand over the remainder of it to my colleague. I have two questions. The first is to Ms Graham. Where is the tender for integrated ticketing? When is there likely to be an award of the contract and when is implementation expected to happen? This question on the school project is for Mr. Kent. This is concentrating...
