Lack of ILS on 09 leading to a few diversions in recent weeks, FAO today. Down to unusually long spell of easterly winds, above tailwind minima for ILS approach on 27 which rarely have any problem.

In fairness ORK, SNN, CFN, KIR and DUB all had weather diversions in last week, but not great advertising if the weather trend continues.

Not that there will be any infrastructure investment in near future, department still discussing terms of reference for airport study with the original deadline just a month off...
