Draft Airports Slot Allocation (Alleviation of Usage Requirements) (No. 2) Regulations 2021

Debate between Graham Stringer and Robert Courts

Tuesday 19th October 2021 General Committees

[Robert Courts]

The reason is that aerodromes are a devolved matter in relation to Northern Ireland. There are also no co-ordinated slot airports in Northern Ireland, so the Northern Ireland Executive have agreed that it was not necessary for the powers of the 2021 Act to extend to, or apply in relation to, Northern Ireland.

I am conscious that I promised to respond to the query from the hon. Member for Blackley and Broughton.

[Graham Stringer]

The Minister is seeking inspiration.
