Airports and other regulated organisations are required to report all breaches of regulation and all incidents to the Department for Transport. This includes instances such as incorrect procedure being followed by airport staff, disruptive passengers, or unauthorised persons accessing secure areas.

For security reasons the Department does not make details of these reports public.
