601. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason for the 30% rise in the projected cost of the second runway at Dublin Airport; if the planned length of the runway is necessary for the demand anticipated; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29603/16]

​The issues raised by the Deputy in relation to the proposed second runway at Dublin Airport are operational matters for the daa which has the statutory responsibility for the management, operation and development of the airport.

  Therefore, I have forwarded the question to the daa for their attention and direct reply to the Deputy.  If the Deputy does not receive a reply from the daa within ten working days, please advise my Private Office.
