THIS GOVERNMENT LIED…ON TRANSPORT
Ryanair, Ireland's largest airline, today (15th Apr) criticised the failure of Bertie Ahern's Government to keep its 2002 election promises on transport.
In his 2002 Agreed Programme for Government, Bertie Ahern made the following pledges:
We will ensure a low cost facility is built in Dublin without delay - Page 14
We will ensure that our airports cater for the low cost sector - Page 14
We will develop the metro to Dublin airport by 2007- Page 13
We will progress a new independent terminal at Dublin airport - Page 14
Bertie has BROKEN his promises on all 4 counts.
Speaking today, Ryanair's Head of Communications Peter Sherrard said:
"Bertie's government cannot be trusted. It has failed to deliver on its Agreed Programme for Government and after the spectacular failure at Cork airport, Bertie Ahern is now allowing the DAA monopoly to build a Taj-Mahal second terminal at Dublin airport, which will cost €800m- four times more than the €200m cost when the DAA monopoly announced it in September 2005. If this goes ahead passenger charges will double.
"Had Bertie kept his promises, Irish passengers would now enjoy improved facilities and lower passenger charges at an independent second Dublin terminal. Instead, passengers are still stuck in queues and will have to pay DOUBLE because of Bertie's broken promises".
