answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/04/2016 answer text <p>We regularly assess all threats to aviation security along with appropriate response measures. Following the recent attacks at Brussels Airport, measures were put in place to enhance the protection of public areas at UK airports. We do not currently assess that requiring all bags to be scanned at the entrance to airport building would be an effective and proportionate response, but we will continue to work with airports and the police to keep this and other possible measures under review.</p> answering member constituency Scarborough and Whitby answering member printed Mr Robert Goodwill question first answered 28/04/2016 13:43:20 answering member 1562 label Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill
