In the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the provisions of the EU airspace and air traffic management regulations would be replicated in national law under the EU Withdrawal Act. The UK would also continue to be a member of the intergovernmental organisation, Eurocontrol, providing a mechanism to coordinate on airspace issues with other European States.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 18/04/2019 10:25:30 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

	tabling member printed	Baroness Brady
	uin	HL15141
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/04/2019 answer text <p>The Government has prohibited the use of CCTV and ANPR for local authority on-street parking enforcement since 2015 under the Deregulation Act 2015 and the Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General (Amendment No. 2) Regulations 2015. For reasons of child safety and congestion management, parking restrictions near schools, on red routes, in bus lanes, and at bus stand clearways are exempt from this ban. As part of its work to improve the safety of cycling, the Government intends to introduce another exemption that will enable the use of approved camera devices for enforcing parking restrictions in mandatory cycle lanes.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 12/04/2019 10:06:54 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

	tabling member printed	Baroness Randerson
	uin	HL15189
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/04/2019 answer text <p>Funding for the English National Concessionary Travel Scheme (ENCTS) is provided to local authorities through the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government’s (MHCLG’s) revenue support grant. This funding is not ringfenced, which enables local authorities to make spending decisions that more closely match local needs and circumstances. It is misleading to talk about the grant in isolation when local authorities have access to council tax, business rates and other local income to deliver their local services.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 18/04/2019 10:27:52 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

This made clear its commitment to the hierarchy of road users.</p><p>Included within CWIS SR action plan is a commitment to review the guidance in The Highway Code to improve safety for cyclists and pedestrians. We are currently agreeing the scope and delivery of this review, and would expect the hierarchy of road users to fall within scope.
