As the deputy is aware, daa holds statutory responsibility for the management, operation and development of Dublin Airport, including the delivery of the North Runway project. 

I have been informed that North Runway will be 3,100 metres in length.  It will have a Category III instrument landing system and has been designed to accommodate Code F aircraft. In this context, the daa is satisfied that the new runway will facilitate any modern long range aircraft that are expected to operate from Dublin Airport.
