Aviation Industry
Dail Éireann — 2024-03-21
============================================================

Martin Kenny (SF), Sligo-Leitrim

I raise with the Minister the issue of the national aviation strategy and where we are going in respect of that. I had cause recently to visit both Dublin Airport and some regional airports. I am very much aware that the airports themselves are under pressure in some cases and, certainly, the regional airports are prepared to come up to the mark and to provide more services without huge investment in them. They would have an opportunity to do that if there was a strategy to make that happen. We also have the issues in Dublin Airport, which is the national airport for the country, and is also an international hub. I would like to know where we are going with this and what the Government intends to do with all of the problems arising in our aviation industry.
