164.To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his plans to address the shortfall in what is paid to retirees under the Irish airlines pension scheme; if he is aware of the hardship endured by many of these pensioners due to the reductions made to their defined benefit pension; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I wish to thank the Deputy for his question. I assume that the Deputy is referring to the Irish Airlines (General Employees) Superannuation Scheme (IASS).

The Deputy will appreciate that pension arrangements applying to a particular pension scheme are a matter for the pension scheme trustees and the scheme members.
