    HENRY SMITH MP HOUSE OF COMMONS LONDON SW1A 0AA Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ 13th July 2021 Dear Chancellor We are writing to you as a group of cross-party MPs and Peers to urge you to extend the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme for workers in the aviation, travel and tourism industries until March 2022 in order to prevent significant job losses when the scheme is due to close in September. As you will know, our aviation, travel and tourism sectors were the first to be impacted as a consequence of COVID-19, with passenger numbers collapsing from March 2020 and with recovery likely to take a number of years, these will also be one of the last sectors to recover. The consequences on our aviation, travel and tourism sectors have been devastating, with businesses seeing little or no revenue for over fifteen months, significant job losses and the risk of business failure remaining a real risk. However, with the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme due to close in September, we run the very real risk of a major jobs crisis in the industry. The latest ONS statistics show that 57% of employees in passenger air transport and 51% of those employed by travel agency and tour operators remain on furlough. With a lost summer season coming on top of the worst fifteen months in the history of UK aviation, without the continuing support of the CJRS the risk of significant redundancies will become a stark and devastating reality.

  • Future of Aviation All-Party Parliamentary Group
    HENRY SMITH MP HOUSE OF COMMONS LONDON SW1A 0AA Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP Prime Minister 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA 20th January 2021 Dear Prime Minister We are writing to you following your announcement suspending all travel corridors and the introduction on further restrictions for people arriving in the UK to call for a comprehensive ‘Aviation, Travel and Tourism Recovery Package’. This was sadly a necessary measure to tackle a serious health emergency and protect the UK from the spread of new variants of COVID-19. It will however cause the effective end of all international travel and is a devastating blow to the aviation, travel, and tourism industries, those working in the sector and the communities who depend on them. These have been amongst the hardest hit of our economy and have suffered unprecedented losses, with passenger numbers at historically low levels even during the peak summer season. As an island nation, our aviation, travel, and tourism sectors are integral to our economy and are major employers throughout the UK. They will also be a vital part of our economic recovery from the pandemic when it is safe to do so. It is therefore essential that action is taken now to provide further protection for these businesses, their supply chains, employees, and communities. We therefore urge you to work with all in and associated with these industries to introduce a full and comprehensive ‘Aviation, Travel and Tourism Recovery Package’ that will provide immediate financial and additional support alongside a pathway to allow aviation to come out of these restrictions when safe to do so.

Printed by Minuteman Press Printing, 61 Kyle Street, Ayr, KA71RS We, the Scottish National Party candidates for election at the South Ayrshire Council Elections being held on 4th May 2017 are committed to serving you the people of South Ayrshire and the communities in which you live. To do so, we believe it will be necessary to make radical changes from the current situation where the Council impose major decisions on the public without any meaningful consultation, engagement or discussion to a position where it is acknowledged and accepted that as Councillors, we are elected to serve you and listen to your views and take account of what you would want to see happen in your communities. Put simply the SNP want communities to have a new experience of local government as active participants, partners and decision makers. Our first actions therefore will be to listen to your views and this dialogue will shape the detail of how we will bring control of budgets and services closer to our local communities. We know that our different communities have varied needs and accept that communities have different needs and priorities. We also firmly believe that we should be accountable to you, not just every five years at election time but always, and we will commit to regular meetings with communities to be held accountable for our decisions.
