Munition permits under the Air Navigation (Carriage of Munitions of War, Weapons and Dangerous Goods) Order, 1973, as amended, are granted for 'a particular aircraft operation'. Airlines applying for such permits are required to submit the flight number, origin and destination of the flight, details of whether the flight will land in Ireland, and, most importantly, full details of the nature of the munitions on board. The registration details of the particular aircraft carrying out the operation are not included in the application form so the information sought by the Deputy is not available to my Department.

However, outlined in the table details of the number and dates of flights by the five airlines that were granted munitions permits over the last year for flights landing at Shannon Airport.
