answer text <p>Greybull Capital is not itself a shareholder in Monarch Airlines but they do perform an advisory and management role for the principal shareholder, Petrol Jersey Limited. The extent of any profit or loss resulting from Petrol Jersey Limited’s investment in Monarch Airlines has not yet been determined as it will depend on the outcome of the administration process and any asset realisations and distributions that may result from that process. The administration is still ongoing, and the timeline and process for concluding it is being determined by KPMG as administrator.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are not yet able to give a final figure for the costs of the repatriation operation as we are awaiting invoices from third parties. In line with the usual transparency guidelines on government expenditure and financial reporting the absolute full and final position will be made clear in the annual accounts for the department, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and the Air Travel Trust (ATT), which should be published in June 2018.</p><p>At this stage, the current forecasts suggest that the total cost of the repatriation operation remain broadly in line with the original estimate of around £60m. As explained in my written answer on 5 December 2017 (HL3455), we are focused on making sure that there is clear burden sharing of the repatriation operation, and are seeking to recover costs of the operation from third parties. We will in due course be able to report back with more detail.</p> more like this
