Irish Aviation Authority Bill, 1993: Committee Stage.
I support Senator Howard's amendment calling on the Minister to locate the headquarters of the Authority at Shannon Airport. I listened with interest to Senator Magner's comments about objective crit...
One wonders if he is equating modernisation with centralisation.
I cannot accept Senator Magner's argument against incorporating Senator Howard's amendment in the Bill. It is important that it is incorporated and my colleague made a strong case for doing so. Ther...
They may, but they will vote as the Fine Gael Members in the Dáil voted.
It is unfortunate that Government speakers have interpreted the motivation behind Senator Howard's amendment as an attempt to politically embarrass them. If they could see this amendment as genuine t...
As I said earlier, Ministers' statements are not worth the paper they are written on as far as the people in the mid-west region are concerned. We have concrete proof of that and I can provide Senator...
A Minister made this announcement and people in the mid-west know that ministerial announcements are not worth the paper they are written on.

Irish Aviation Authority Bill, 1993: Committee Stage (Resumed).
I support the line promoted by Senator Burke in relation to the appointment of the Chairman of the Committee of Public Accounts to the board of directors of the new body. Senator Burke correctly said...
This amendment is interesting. By tabling this amendment, Senator Quinn has raised the question of the difference between State and semi-State sectors. The question must be asked: would it not be be...
That is another question, there are three strands.
There are subsidiaries; it is important that we take notice of that.
Will jobs be lost because of that?
The lads in Ballygirren asked me to ask if jobs will be lost as a result of this.
It is a matter between the Minister and the lads in Ballygirreen.
I agree with Senator Ross in relation to this section. I raised this matter on Second Stage. Three years is a very long time before a report is made specifically to the Minister in relation to safet...
I agree with what the Minister of State said regarding what ANSO has been doing. We complimented them on Second Stage on their fine work and their high international standards. However, 20 years fr...
