The Minister of State for Transport has set up a daily crisis management meeting on the security queues at Dublin Airport.
Hildegarde Naughton met the DAA today to discuss the redeployment of staff to deal with queue management, additional overtime, the additional opening hours of security lanes, and enhancing communications with passengers.
The DAA has recruited 100 additional security staff and has plans to recruit nearly 300 more.
The Minister and the department will continue to monitor the situation and plan to engage with DAA daily.
