I have been advised by my Air Accident Investigation Unit (AAIU) that no "near miss" was reported into the Unit for the 17 October 2007. Following receipt of this PQ, the AAIU contacted Shannon ATC, Cork ATC, the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA), BMI (Airline) and Servisair (BMI Handler) to ascertain whether such an event had occurred. All replied in the negative. If the Deputy has further details relating to this "near miss" I would request that you provide same directly to the AAIU.
