(asked on 3rd September 2018) - View Source
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment his Department has made of the effect of the imposition of Air Passenger Duty on regional airports in the UK.
This question was answered on 10th September 2018
Like all taxes, Air Passenger Duty remains under review and officials regularly engage with stakeholders, including representatives from regional airports. Last year regional airports handled approximately 113 million passengers, around 40% of the UK total, and airports across the regions of the UK continue to grow.
