Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will publish the membership of the Civil Aviation Authority team who will conduct the post-implementation review of offshore helicopter safety, CAP1145; and when that review is planned to be completed.
The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is committed to ensuring that North Sea helicopter flying is as safe as possible and the CAA’s comprehensive safety review in 2014 resulted in further improvements to offshore helicopter safety standards. The post implementation review is being led by the CAA’s Safety Assurance team, supported by experts from across the CAA including from its airworthiness, flight operations and policy teams.
The CAA plans to complete the review prior to the 3rd quarter of 2019.
