Date Published: 13-Jun-2010

The Government's support programme for Galway and other regional airports is not an issue for Europe.That's according to Fine Gael MEP for the North West, Jim Higgins who is slamming the Government's response to Galway airport's recent application to the programme. The programme, which provides millions of euro to Galway airport each year to help subsidise services, is at threat of being axed in Government cutbacks.
