‹ Order of Business Aer Arann flights to the Aran Islands
Summary
Michael Healy-Rae sought Government support to retain Aer Arann’s flights to the Aran Islands for residents’ and visitors’ safety. The Tánaiste said the relevant Ministers had met local representatives; no legislation was currently promised.
The Tánaiste is aware of the importance of the retention of Aer Arann flights to the Aran Islands. In the interests of the health and safety of those living on and visiting the islands, will he ensure, in the same way that the Transport (Córas Iompair Éireann and Subsidiary Companies Borrowings) Bill provided for an increase in the borrowing limit for CIE, some provision is made to ensure the service will be retained?
