@IATA We oppose the Home Office proposal to increase the costs of UK Electronic Travel Authorizations by 60% to GBP 16.  The added cost would come on top of the APD—the biggest travel tax in the world—which itself will increase again in April. 

@martinjoconnell Given that Darragh O’Brien is the new transport minister, I would expect that all issues pertaining to Dublin Airport will be front and centre and key to his political career given the majority of staff working there likely live in his Fingal East constituency which includes Swords, Malahide & Portmarnock.
