Taxis at Dublin Airport have suspended services at the terminal buildings.

It is a dispute with the Dublin Airport Authority (DAA).

Drivers who hold permits to pick up passengers at the terminals have stopped operating this afternoon.

They say the DAA is withdrawing part of the taxi rank used by drivers at the airport.

The Irish Taxi Drivers Federation say spaces for their taxi cabs is the main issue.

A spokesman says he understands their spaces are to be used for DAA staff spaces.

John Usher is from the Irish Taxi Drivers Federation.

He says there are some talks going on right now.
