I outlined to the House on 18 October 2006, in response to a previous question, that the Revenue Commissioners are conducting a review of licensed aerodromes and it is being dealt with as a priority matter. I also stated at that time that the review was likely to take approximately six weeks to complete. I have now been informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the review is on target and that it should be completed within Revenue around the end of November. In the circumstances, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on the controls in place at licensed aerodromes pending the completion of this review.
