Collier bows to pressure in bonus dispute

DUBLIN Airport Authority boss Declan Collier has bowed to Government pressure and relinquished his controversial €100,000-plus bonus.

It came after Transport Minister Leo Varadkar threatened not to reappoint DAA board members when their terms expired towards the end of the year.

The Minister later said he hoped the weekend stand-off would serve to warn other semi-state companies who defied Government policy.
