Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to encourage the greater use of regional airports across the United Kingdom.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

The UK aviation market operates predominantly in the private sector. Regional airports invest in their infrastructure to attract passengers and airlines, while airlines are well placed to deliver services to their customers by responding to demand for different routes.

The Government continues to support vital connectivity to the regions through public service obligation routes whilst an expanded Heathrow could provide an opportunity to strengthen regional connectivity to the UK’s hub airport.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to review the Barnett formula.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

The Barnett formula is a key part of the arrangements for pooling and sharing risks and resources across the UK. It is simple, efficient and provides a clear and certain outcome, which is why it has stood the test of time.

There are currently no plans to modify the operation of the Barnett formula.

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to change the existing legislation on the filling of jerry cans of diesel or petrol at filling stations.

Answered by Baroness Sherlock - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

There are no plans to update the existing legislation (The Petroleum (Consolidation) Regulations 2014) as it already addresses what can be filled at petrol filling stations. HSE has published guidance on the types of container that can be filled in a petrol filling station on their website.

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to hold regular meetings of the Cabinet in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

Cabinet routinely takes place in No10 Downing Street as has been the case under successive governments. There are currently no plans for Cabinet to take place across the UK, but that is kept under review.
