Covid-19: Aviation Sector

Debate between Lord Rosser and Lord Fowler

Monday 5th October 2020 Lords Chamber

[The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)]

I now call the noble and right reverend Lord, Lord Eames. Lord Eames? Lord Eames, for the third time? I think I will move on, in the interests of time. I call the noble Lord, Lord Rosser.

[Lord Rosser (Lab)]

Key asks from the airline industry are the implementation of testing for passengers arriving from high-risk destinations—not least New York—greater transparency on the Government’s methodology for determining travel corridors and restrictions, a temporary 12-month waiver of APD and the regionalisation of travel corridors, as I am sure the Minister knows. How many of those do the Government intend to agree to?
