Taxi head recommends agreement in Dublin Airport row

Agreement has been reached between taxi drivers and DAA officials at mediated talks this morning.

Taxi drivers at Dublin airport have been on strike since Wednesday over a number of car parking spaces.

All taxi unions are going to recommend to their members that they accept the recommendations of the mediator and a vote is expected by drivers this morning.

John Usher from the Irish Taxi Drivers Federation said he thinks drivers should accept it.

Mr Usher said: "The meeting went on from five o'clock yesterday until 6.30 this morning, and we have arrived back at Dublin Airport to address the drivers.

"We will put a proposal to them and we would be recommending accepting the proposal."
