Shannon Airport Facilities
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-26
============================================================

Catherine Connolly (IND), Galway West

My question is a direct one. What are the Minister's plans to engage with the new President of America, Mr. Joe Biden, in respect of the continued use of Shannon Airport by American troops, given that this year alone 65,965, or almost 70,000, troops have passed through in ten months which is more than in any year from 2014 to 2017?
