  • Westminster Hall Debate: the Future of Regional Airports
    Debate Pack Westminster Hall Debate: Number CDP 2021/0118 By Dr Roger Tyers, The Future of Regional Airports Noel Dempsey, Georgina Hutton, Fintan Codd 6 July 2021 1 Background 2 2 Parliamentary Material 13 3 Press/Blog Articles 17 4 Further Reading 18 The Future of Regional Airports 1 Background A Westminster Hall Debate on Wednesday 7 July has been scheduled for 7 July on the topic of the ‘Future of Regional Airports’, sponsored by Steve Double MP. The Library has prepared the following material about current issues facing regional airports, including their usage, economic contribution, support granted during the Covid-19 pandemic, and future issues facing regional airports including potential changes to Air Passenger Duty (ADP), climate goals, and expansion plans. Defining Regional Airports The term ‘regional airport’ is not a statutory or legislative one, although it is very widely used in writings about UK airports. The Transport Sub-committee of the Environment, Transport and Regional Affairs Select Committee conducted an inquiry into regional air services in 1997. This paper adopts their definition of regional airports being any UK airport other than London airports (Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, London Luton, Southend and London City), and the airports on the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.1 Use of regional airports The Civil Aviation Authority publishes data on 42 regional airports.2 During 2019 (the latest year unaffected by Covid-19) there were 1.05 million air passenger transport movements (landings and take-offs) collectively by regional airports. This was 48% of all air passenger transport movements across all UK reporting airports (London area and regional).

The 1999 helicopter is being bought for around $1.8M plus costs associated with various additional police role equipment items. The aircraft has been purchased but is expected to take several weeks to arrive in the islands. For more than a year, the RCIPS has used a Cayman Helicopters AS350 in situations where air support was needed. The use of the hire helicopter has already proven there is a need. The most successful recent incident was when it assisted in catching a fast canoe that attempted to bring some 1,000 pounds of ganja into North Side. Five people were ar- rested in the incident.

  • Police Aviation News 288 April 2020 1 # ©Police Aviation Research Issue
    Police Aviation News 288 April 2020 1 ©Police Aviation Research Issue 288 April 2020 Police Aviation News 288 April 2020 2 EDITORIAL I think it is fair to say that events are going further and faster than anyone had predicted just 30 days ago. Fortunately, despite the clear distraction of the virus, there is ordinary news out there. Most, if not all, governments are guiding the Coronavirus/COVID-19 crisis by the seat of their political pants. Despite the probing questions by journalists who have time to read and digest everything at their own pace, most politicians lack the shrewd analytical mind of a genius and it shows. Inject forty different opinions into a policy making session and what comes out is at best unclear. No one knows where this will end so we can but hope that for us individually it is a good outcome. Ask any emergency air support unit what planning they have made for a COVID-19 scenario and the an- swer is going to be none. It is new and unprecedented, and you can be sure the aeronautical rule books do not cater for it. What happens when a mission outside the rule book is called for? Operators flying Pub- lic Use/State Aircraft are going to be at a greater advantage than those that have signed up to the EASA or FAA rule book. Someone somewhere may well need to make a decision to overlook the rules (and hope they get away with it). My recent comment that the “shortage of cash flow may seriously effect philanthropy [air ambulances may need to rely a little more upon those reserves]” has now come to the fore.

The population represented by SASIG is some 23 million. SASIG has campaigned for many years for a long-term aviation strategy for the UK. Whilst looking 30 years ahead is difficult, it is the minimum time frame over which to ensure that any strategy can show the vision necessary to avoid incremental growth at existing airports. SASIG accepts the Government’s mid point forecasts of 500 million passengers per annum at 2030 as the basis for formulating airports policy, but expects the Government to develop a strategy that has viability for at least another 10 years so as to accommodate higher or slower growth. SASIG believes that policies based on predict and provide do not allow sufficient account to be taken of the need for aviation to meet its external costs.

  • Consultation Response PA14. Welsh Local Government Association PDF
    NAfW inquiry into international connectivity through Welsh ports and airports February 2012 INTRODUCTION 1. The Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) represents the 22 local authorities in Wales, and the three national park authorities, the three fire and rescue authorities, and four police authorities are associate members. 2. It seeks to provide representation to local authorities within an emerging policy framework that satisfies the key priorities of our members and delivers a broad range of services that add value to Welsh Local Government and the communities they serve. 3. The WLGA welcomes this opportunity to feed comments into the NAfW‟s inquiry into international connectivity through Welsh ports and airports. Tables 1 and 2 below show that local authorities have a major interest in this issue with ten authorities having an airport/aircraft facility in their area and eight having a port – six have both. Overall, twelve authorities have an airport and/or a port – all of varying degrees of scale and activity. (In addition there are a number of former ports that have ceased to operate on a large scale but now house other activities including fishing and tourism related activity).
