Transport Minister Leo Varadkar has promised to examine whether taxpayers' money is used to provide VIP facilities at Dublin Airport for former and current office holders.

It emerged yesterday that almost €20,000 was spent on the facilities in the last six months of 2012 for former President Mary Robinson and European Commissioner Máire Geoghegan Quinn.
