DAA chairman to resign

Dublin Airport Authority chairman David Dilger is to step down from his position, it was announced today.

The move, which a statement from the company said would allow Mr Dilger "to afford more time to his broad range of other interests", will take effect from May 31.

DAA chief executive Declan Collier thanked Mr Dilger for his contribution during the past two years.

“David has been an excellent Chairman of the company and we wish him well in the future,” he said.
