The issue of public safety zones at State airports was the subject of a study by consultants which was submitted to the Department of Transport and my Department in September 2003. The recommendations in the report are currently being considered by both Departments with a view to submitting proposals to Government shortly. If approved by Government, it is envisaged that public safety zones would be implemented through local development plans.
