To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if obsolete equipment including redundant emergency vehicles from Shannon Airport were made available to voluntary groups along the Shannon Estuary since July 2012; if the airport received expressions of interest for equipment from Foynes Search and Rescue; if they were successful in their request for equipment; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The matters raised by the Deputy are ones that fall within the operational responsibilities of Shannon Airport Authority and I have referred the question to the company for direct reply.  I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a reply has not been received within ten working days.
