Travel privileges for air traffic controllers
Mitchell said extending airport travel privileges to air traffic controllers could improve morale and efficiency; Brennan said he knew of no complaint about their arrangements. The Chair then moved the questioning on.
The Minister knows the House is given privilege because it allows Deputies to raise questions without naming people. Is the Minister aware that air traffic controllers have not the same travel privileges as other people working at Dublin Airport? Would he agree that it would lift morale, improve efficiency and generally improve the attitude to flights getting off on time if the same air travel privileges were extended to air traffic controllers as everybody else at Dublin Airport?
Comment on this
I am not aware of any complaint by air traffic controllers as to their travel arrangements.
