Ezy today will operate 1478 sectors of which 97% are turnarounds of 30 mins or more. In fact most Spanish airports now have 35 min turnarounds.
We don't do 20 min turnarounds

The CAA have no juristriction over Ryanair. It's the IAA

Being a superior aviation authority I'd thought you'd know this.

I've operated for ezy for 6 years on 30 min turnarounds without a single incident or problem. You see it's all about setting your mind to it. Refuelling is easy. A fuel uplift is decided in the cruise based on most up to date weather and pilot obs. Procedures in place to enable fuelling whilst embarking and disembarking and strictly adhered to. Weight as balance is computerised and takes approx 4 mins from loadsheet arrival. The system is designed to be safe with any 2 independent errors.
Cabin is cleaned by crew who have it down to a fine art.
If 30 min takes 35 mins then it does. Never be questioned as to a delay.

Ezy have an impressive safety record.
