answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/01/2015 answer text <p>Gibraltar continues to be included in the scope of existing Single European Sky II (SESII) legislation, as it should be under the Treaties of the European Union.　 At the Transport Council on 5 December, the Government took a very firm position making it clear to the European Commission and Italian Presidency that Spain’s attempts to exclude Gibraltar airport from the proposed Single European Sky Two+ proposals were unacceptable to the UK and the Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Transport, Robert Goodwill walked out of Council to protest this approach.　 The Government will continue to oppose Spain’s attempts to exclude Gibraltar airport from future aviation legislation.</p> answering member printed Baroness Kramer question first answered 15/01/2015 12:20:40 answering member 1557 label Biography information for Baroness Kramer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/01/2015 answer text <p>Network Rail is responsible for managing a large number of station rebuilding projects. The scope and scale of these works vary from relatively minor works to very large scale projects such as London King’s Cross or Birmingham New Street. The amount of assessment will similarly vary depending upon the scale of the project concerned. For the larger schemes it is usual for the Department for Transport to appoint a scheme sponsor. These sponsors are in regular contact with Network Rail to undertake assurance activity around delivery.</p><p> </p><p>In addition the Office of Rail Regulation undertakes regular reviews of Network Rail’s delivery against its Business Plan commitments, and this will include station rebuilding projects.</p> answering member printed Baroness Kramer question first answered 15/01/2015 12:18:04 answering member 1557 label Biography information for Baroness Kramer
