‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Clare Aeronautical Radio Station. Charges for British rescue flights
Summary
Kelly questioned charging British aircraft on rescue missions, contrasting it with Irish objections to overflights, and accused the Government of double standards. The exchange became heated, and the Ceann Comhairle ended it and moved to the next question.
