Up to the end of November 2018, my Department has processed 43 applications for an exemption to carry munitions of war which were also classified as being 'dangerous goods' under Annex 18 of the Chicago Convention. Ten applications were refused and 33 were granted.

Statistics relating to exemptions granted for flights landing in Ireland with 'dangerous goods' are published on my Department's website.
