answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/01/2019 answer text <p>As part of BEIS’ work on EU exit, interactions with trade associations take place on a regular and ongoing basis and we are working to ensure that UK businesses are as well informed and prepared for leaving the EU as possible and to advise them on the steps they may need to take to prepare for EU exit.</p><p> </p><p>As such, we have launched a public information campaign about how EU exit will affect businesses and the practical steps they will need to take to be ready. The campaign directs them to GOV.UK/euexit where they are able to find the latest advice and information on any aspect of leaving the EU which affects them and outlines the steps they need to take.</p> answering member printed Lord Henley question first answered 23/01/2019 14:39:42 answering member 2616 label Biography information for Lord Henley

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to introduce urgent legislation to immediately implement a five-kilometre drone exclusion zone as proposed by the British Airline Pilots Association for all commercial and military airports; if so, when; and if not, why not.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/01/2019 answer text <p>As set out in my recent Statement [7 January 2019 vol 794] on the Government’s response to our recent consultation <em>Taking Flight: The Future of Drones in the UK,</em> we will be taking forward several measures to ensure that passengers have confidence that their journeys will not be disrupted by drones, that aircraft can safely use our key transport hubs and that criminals misusing drones can be brought to justice.</p><p> </p><p>Although any restriction zone would not have prevented a deliberate incident such as that seen recently at Gatwick, we want to ensure that proportionate measures are in place at airports to protect aircraft and avoid potential conflict with legitimate drone activity. We will therefore introduce additional protections around airports, with a particular focus on protected exclusion zones 5km from runway ends at a width of 1km, alongside increasing the current restrictions to the extent of existing Aerodrome Traffic Zones (ATZ) around airports. Drone pilots wishing to fly within these zones must only do so with permission from the aerodrome air traffic control. The Department for Transport will amend the Air Navigation Order 2016 to implement these changes.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 17/01/2019 14:17:11 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what action they intend to take to ensure that trains running between Horsham and Peterborough stop at their scheduled stops and avoid stations being missed without passengers being given prior notice.
tabling member printed	Lord Naseby
uin	HL11671
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/12/2018 answer text <p>Omitting scheduled station stops (‘station skipping’) is used for service recovery, the intention being to restore the service to timetable as quickly as possible following a problem. Services which miss stations en route are counted as cancellations against GTR’s performance benchmarks. The Department monitors GTR’s cancellation levels as part of the contractual performance regime. This incorporates incentives and penalties which are used to hold the operator to account.</p><p> </p><p>We expect the operator to make the correct operational decisions which balances the needs of passengers who are inconvenienced by taking stops out of service against the wider advantages to passengers to get services back on schedule as soon as possible. Operators are expected to communicate this to passengers in good time where possible, and to provide affected passengers with advice on the alternative options to complete their journey.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 05/12/2018 15:37:12 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they will meet with senior officials from Govia Thameslink to discuss the provision of automatic replacement services to London Kings Cross to ensure passengers can get to London when the Peterborough to Horsham line is blocked.
tabling member printed	Lord Naseby
uin	HL9990
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/09/2018 answer text <p>Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) and Network Rail have agreed service recovery plans in place that are activated depending on the specific incident, its location on the network, destination and time of day.</p><p> </p><p>Recognising the potential impact of delays on passengers these plans will typically balance trying to get the maximum number of passengers to their destination as quickly as possible, recovering the delays whilst also attempting to ensure no further delays and obstructions are introduced across the network. There will be times that these plans need to be adapted to suit the situation and scale of the incident. As such it is important that decisions are taken by operational staff within Network Rail and GTR as they are best placed to understand the potential impact on passengers on a case by case basis.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 18/09/2018 11:37:06 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg
