Air Navigation and Transport Bill 2020: Report and Final Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2022-11-09
============================================================

Hildegarde Naughton (FG), Galway West

The provisions replicated section 19 of the 1993 Act. This was originally when the IAA was being taken out of the Department of Transport. It was, I suppose, an error in the drafting. The valuation exercise is prior to the set-up of the vesting process between the IAA and AirNav Ireland. There is no intention that AirNav Ireland would have a debt to the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. Basically, this is a drafting error. It is a cut and paste from section 19 of the 1993 Act when the IAA was being taken out of the Department of Transport.
