The Deputy will recall that when I gave the information in November 2003, it was given in conjunction with information about red zones and the public safety zones being proposed by consultants employed by my Department and the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government. The regulation of obstacle surfaces at the approaches to runways is entirely a matter for the Irish Aviation Authority which will be happy to provide the relevant information to the Deputy.
