Govt to probe Aer Rianta favours for Liam Lawlor

Public Enterprise Minister Mary O’Rourke is expected to write to Aer Rianta’s chairman today to ask why disgraced TD Liam Lawlor received preferential treatment at Dublin Airport on his return from New York earlier this month.

Airport security staff helped Mr Lawlor to exit through a staff area so he could avoid a horde of photographers waiting for his arrival.
