The operator of Dublin Airport says it has completed the purchase of anti-drone technology and equipment that will be deployed after regulatory requirements around its use are complete.

Daa says that while members of the fire service at Dublin Airport have been trained in the use of the new technology, it is not expected to be operational in time for the busy Easter holiday period.
