I have kept in close touch with the developing situation at SRT, with a view to maximising employment opportunities at the plant. Following a series of contacts with both the company and Government interests in the United Arab Emirates, I am pleased to record that on Thursday 4 June, SR Technics indicated they had now agreed, in principle, to sell the bulk of its aircraft maintenance operations at Dublin Airport to Dublin Aerospace Ltd. an Irish company. I am hopeful that this company's proposal will result in the recommencement of an MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) business at Dublin Airport. The full support of the State development agencies has been made available to all interested parties including Dublin Aerospace Ltd with a view to providing every possible assistance.
