308. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport further to Parliamentary Question No. 645 of 14 February 2017, if he will put in place US border preclearance at Cork Airport as is in place in both Dublin and Shannon airports; his views on the fact that there is now a business case for such a facility in view of the fact that the US Department of Transportation has granted a licence to a company (details supplied) to operate the first direct transatlantic flights between Cork and the United States.

As indicated in my reply to Question 645 of 14 February 2017, there are no plans to establish a preclearance facility at Cork Airport. There is no business case for such a facility.
