Sanctions to be imposed on those found guilty of illegal drone use



The Transport Minister’s promising to crack down on illegal drone use.

 

Operations had to be suspended at Dublin Airport on three separate occasions over the Bank Holiday due to activity in the air space.

 

Among those impacted by the delays were the Leitrim Gaelic Senior Football team that flew to the UK on Saturday ahead of their game against London in the Allianz Football league on Sunday.

 

After holding talks with DAA , Gardai and the Irish Aviation Authority last night, Eamon Ryan condemned what he called the ‘unacceptable disruption to passengers’ but said the measures, including the suspension of flight operations, were in line with international best practice.

 

He also says information garnered form an early warning system is being used to pursue enforcement activity, including prosecution.
