As the Deputy is aware, statutory responsibility for the ownership, management and development of Cork Airport rests with the daa which operates to a fully commercial mandate and any proposals in relation to infrastructure and facilities at the Airport are a matter for the company.  I have forwarded the Question to daa for direct reply.  If the Deputy does not receive a reply within 10 working days, please advise my Private Office.
