Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, with regard to the UK-EU Agreement in Respect of Gibraltar: Joint statement on 11 June, whether there will be any changes to UK sovereignty over Gibraltar Airport or to its legal and practical operating environment, other than those required to operate new Schengen controls.

Sovereignty and jurisdiction over Gibraltar's airport are and will remain unchanged. The arrangements we have agreed to facilitate commercial passenger flights between Gibraltar and the European Union safeguard this. Military functions are out of scope of the arrangements foreseen under the UK-EU Agreement.
