Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

I ask the Minister of State about the planned cap of 32 million passengers at Dublin Airport and its impact upon regional flights within Ireland and if he can make a statement on the matter. The matter was brought up by Deputy Pearse Doherty with regard to Donegal Cancer Flights and Services and the fact that there are 430 cancer patients for whom this is the means by which they get to hospital on Monday night on RTÉ. We cannot have these people impacted by this cap. There is a wider issue with regard to this cap.
