Dublin Airport chaos
Mary Lou McDonald challenged the Taoiseach on repeated disruption at Dublin Airport and asked that Minister Eamon Ryan come to the House to address it.
It is not agreed. I asked the Taoiseach about the response of the Minister for Transport, Deputy Ryan, to the chaotic scenes we saw again at Dublin Airport. In his response the Taoiseach set out some of the work done by the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Deputy O'Brien. I am not satisfied with that answer. I am very concerned as we now come very close to Christmas, with huge numbers of passengers passing through Dublin Airport, that we cannot see the type of chaos, delay and distress that we witnessed during the summer. I ask that the Minister, Deputy Ryan, presents himself to the Dáil, makes a statement on the planning for Dublin Airport and takes questions from Members.
