The Government is continuing to plan and discuss with the Civil Aviation Authority how to address the requirements of the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill and ensure a coordinated and seamless transfer to a new legislative framework.<\/p>

<\/p>

The powers provided by section 60 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982, the revoke and restatement powers contained in the Bill, combined with the power to extend the sunsetting date for Retained EU Legislation to 2026, will allow us to maintain a comprehensive set of aviation regulations.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government is committed to engaging with stakeholders to ensure policy decisions are well-informed and result in benefits for both citizens and business.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4580", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-01-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-01-27T14:28:42.533Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-01-24", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Aircraft: Safety"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with (1) the Civil Aviation Authority, and (2) representatives of the wider aviation and airline sector, about those laws relating to aircraft safety which are subject to the provisions of the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4230", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Randerson"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Baroness Randerson"} ], "uin" : "HL5033"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1536548", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1536548/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The majority of aviation safety requirements are contained in retained EU law. However some aviation activities, mainly related to very light aircraft and smaller airports, are excluded from the scope of the retained EU law. These activities are regulated under the Air Navigation Order 2016.<\/p>

The Department for Transport has recently commissioned an independent review into the safety of recreational General Aviation. The review showed a continuous downward trend in the number of accidents involving light aircrafts since the 1980s, and that the number of accidents in the UK is lower than in the US, Australia and New Zealand. The authors considered that the current safety level of recreational GA is acceptable but made a number of recommendations. We will work with the CAA to consider the implications, and will continue to keep all areas of safety policy under review.<\/p>

<\/p>

Regarding third country registered aircraft based in the UK, the majority are non-complex aircraft registered in the US, used for recreational aviation. Both the General Aviation safety review and evidence from the CAA show there is no evidence that overall non-UK registered aircraft are maintained to a lower standard than UK registered aircraft, and that overall non-UK and European registered aircraft do not have a higher accident rate.<\/p>

<\/p>

For these reasons, the Department for Transport does not consider there to be a safety case to change the regulation of third country registered aircrafts operating primarily in the UK. However, as highlighted above, we will continue to keep all areas of safety policy under review.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4580", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-09-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-09-17T15:34:17.61Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-09-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Aircraft: Safety"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have (1) to improve the safety and regulation of light aircraft, and (2) the safety and regulation of such aircraft which are registered in the United States and other overseas jurisdictions but operating primarily in the UK.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4719", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle"} ], "uin" : "HL7755"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1125068", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1125068/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The recent accident at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport involving an Aeroflot Sukhoi Superjet will be investigated by the Interstate Aviation Committee in Russia, while the responsible authority for certification of the aircraft design in the European Union is the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). No UK airlines currently operate this aircraft type, nor are there currently any routine operations of the type into the UK.<\/p>

The Department for Transport and the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) have been closely monitoring the potential safety risk posed by the Boeing 737 Max-8 aircraft flying in UK airspace following the recent tragic Ethiopian Airlines accident. As a precautionary measure, on 12 March the CAA, as the UK\u2019s independent safety regulator, issued instructions to stop any Boeing 737 Max commercial passenger flights arriving, departing or overflying UK airspace until further notice.<\/p>

<\/p>

Following the CAA\u2019s Directive, the European Aviation Safety Agency published an Airworthiness Directive suspending all commercial operations of all Boeing 737MAX aircraft to, from and within Europe.<\/p>

<\/p>

The CAA are in close contact with affected airlines to minimise any disruption to travelling public.<\/p>
