Access And Jobs Key In Govt Decision Over Aer Lingus Sale
Access and jobs will be key factors in the government's decision on whether or not to accept an Aer Lingus takeover bid by IAG, Minister for Transport Paschal Donohoe has said.
The Aer Lingus board said earlier this week it was willing to recommend the acceptance of the latest offer from IAG. However, the decision needs approval from the government and Ryanair, who both hold shares in the airline.
Minister Donohoe told RTÉ's Prime Time that any sale of Aer Lingus would have political consequences.
