The matter raised by the Deputy in relation to the use of a specific piece of equipment at airports in Ireland is an operational matter for the airports themselves.

Specifically in relation to the three State airports at Dublin, Cork and Shannon, the daa and Shannon Group have statutory responsibility to operate, manage and develop those airports. In the circumstances, I have forwarded the question to the companies for direct reply. If the Deputy does not receive a reply within ten working days, please advise my Private Office.
