The latest release, published on 18 September 2014, details installations up to the end of quarter two 2014, and can be found on the Gov.uk website on the following link:<\/p>
The MOD fully understands the importance of this development in Wales, and will continue to support the Welsh Government in its transition to a wholly civil operation by 2019. Whilst the Department is supportive of this initiative, private companies based at MOD St Athan are clients of the Welsh Government; other than dealing with direct routine operational or safety enquires, the Department does not liaise directly with these companies.<\/p>
Under existing arrangements, while the new airfield contractor completes work-up training, the airfield is available for take offs and landings from Monday to Friday between 9 am and 5 pm and, with 24 hours notice on Saturday and Sunday between the same hours. Arrangements to operate outside these hours may be made by prior request, subject to manpower availability. To support these arrangements the RAF is providing additional air traffic controllers, at the Welsh Governments request. We understand that the Welsh Government\u2019s intention is to provide airfield opening hours of 9 am to 5 pm, 7 days per week, from December 2014.<\/p>
I understand that the hon. Member's questions refer to the use of an Instrument Landing System at MOD St Athan. The airfield is operated under military regulations, which do not require the use of an Instrument Landing System. The Welsh Government has arranged for the installation of an Instrument Landing System for future use by their commercial customers. I understand that while the equipment is fully operational, it has not yet been cleared for aircraft use. MOD officials have been informed that, pending formal clearance the Welsh Government is applying for a limited clearance to use the Instrument Landing System, in order to facilitate interim use by its commercial customers.<\/p>
