Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what capital funding his Department is making available to support the development of infrastructure at regional airports.

Most airport operators are either in the commercial private sector or are public/private partnerships which operate commercially. As such, it is for airport owners to develop and fund proposals on the future development of airports. Airports may consider engaging with local authorities who are best placed to consider local transport priorities using the funding courses at their disposal.
