Dublin Airport Authority and Cork Airport
Jerry Buttimer sought the Government’s plans for the Dublin Airport Authority and Cork Airport, citing the loss of 12 airlines. The Ceann Comhairle ruled the aviation-policy question outside the Order of Business and suggested pursuing it through appropriate channels.
In light of the holding of The Gathering in 2013, could we have an outline from the Government on the role of the Dublin Airport Authority-----

No, Deputy. I must be fair to everybody here. Deputy Buttimer is out of order. Sorry about that.

My question for the Taoiseach is very specific. It concerns the role and composition of the Dublin Airport Authority, with particular reference to Cork Airport, which has lost 12 airlines in the last 12 months-----

What is the Government's plan in that regard?

The Taoiseach is not answering that question because it has nothing to do with promised legislation.
