Debate between Julie Minns and Keir Mather

Thursday 16th July 2026 Commons Chamber

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport (Keir Mather)]

My hon. Friend raises an important issue. This Government are committed to enabling aviation employers to recruit and train pilots from a broader and more diverse talent pool in Doncaster East and across the United Kingdom, supporting growth by removing regulatory barriers and promoting aviation opportunities.
