Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to paragraph 2.2 of the Civil Aviation Authority's Information Notice 2016/066, published on 25 July 2016, whether he will make it his policy that holders of UK pilot licences will not be restricted to operating Light Aircraft Pilot Licence aircraft only after the UK has left the EU.

The Government is considering carefully all the potential implications arising for our aviation industry from the UK’s exit from the EU, including the implications for holders of UK pilot licences of the UK’s future relationship with the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
