Let Ryanair use the old terminal

IN response to Michael Cawley of Ryanair (Letters, February 23), I would like to clarify what I meant by “planning issues” in my letter (February 16).

These issues related to the refusal by the Cork Airport Authority (CAA) to accept Ryanair’s offer to take over the now disused terminal at Cork airport. Planning permission had ceased on it when the new terminal opened.

What is even more amazing is that CAA staff still use the upper floors of the old terminal building as offices.
