Dempsey: Time to move on after Aer Lingus cutbacks

It was time to move on from the fall-out over Aer Lingus’s controversial cutbacks at Shannon, Minister for Transport Noel Dempsey said today.

Even though a report by a top civil servant found she herself failed to warn the Minister of the possible pull-out, Mr Dempsey said he had full faith in the integrity of his staff.
