Aer Lingus employees and Dublin routes

Summary

Burke urged the Minister to consider Aer Lingus employees’ concerns before approving additional carriers on Dublin routes; the Ceann Comhairle ruled the matter outside the question.

Ray Burke Mr. Raphael Burke Fianna Fáil

It is not my intention to get into the Shannon situation. With regard to the Minister's reply to the supplementary from Deputy Reynolds concerning the application for Dublin, will the Minister take into account the legitimate concern of the employees of Aer Lingus with regard to any extra carriers into Dublin and that any decision he makes will not affect the employees of Aer Lingus and the operations of Aer Lingus into Dublin?

Comment on this

The Deputy has touched on the other side of the coin, the consumers and the employees of Aer Lingus.
