The Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) conducts oversight activities, including inspections and audits, of airports, air carriers, cargo companies, airport suppliers and the suppliers of in-flight services. In addition Irish airports are subject to periodic inspections by the European Commission. My Department receives regular reports on the results of oversight activities but the Deputy will appreciate that we can not comment on security matters.
