In the Appraisal of Sustainability (AoS) that accompanies the proposed Airports National Policy Statement (NPS), the Government has undertaken a high level assessment of the effect on the water environment of the Heathrow Northwest Runway scheme.<\/p>

<\/p>

The proposed Airports NPS sets out the requirements in relation to water quality and resources which any applicant for a Development Consent Order would need to meet. This potentially includes the effects on water bodies or protected areas under the Water Framework Directive.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government has not estimated the time it will take to decontaminate land. This a matter that would need to be addressed as part of any application for development consent. The AoS identifies a range of sources and pathways for contamination within the site boundary. These include two active landfills, 16 historic landfills and 11 registered pollution incidents, five of which are classified as significant.<\/p>

First, on 5 December 2016 the Government launched a consultation on driving offences and penalties relating to causing death and serious injury. This ran until 1 February 2017. The Government response to the consultation was published on 16 October 2017, and confirmed proposals to increase the maximum penalty for causing death by dangerous driving and for causing death by careless driving whilst under the influence of drink or drugs from 14 years to life; and to create a new offence of causing serious injury by careless driving. These are still under review by the ministry of justice.<\/p>

<\/p>

Secondly, on 9 March 2018, the Department for Transport published an independent legal report which considers the case for a change in law for cycling, equivalent to causing death or serious injury by dangerous or careless driving. The Department is considering the report and will publish a response shortly. This work is part of an open and comprehensive review TO improve safety for all road users and encourage more people to walk and cycle. The Government intends to bring forward proposals for changes in the law as and when parliamentary time allows.<\/p>

<\/p>

Finally, on 13 June the Department for Transport published a progress report to the 2015 Road Safety Statement, which announced that it would be refreshing the Statement and developing a two year action plan for road safety. There are four priority user groups to be addressed in this plan: young people<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>, rural road users<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>, motorcyclists<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> and older vulnerable users.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>

A full consultation was undertaken between 5 February 2013 and 2 April 2013 to look at whether voiceover and interpreter facilities should be withdrawn for driving test candidates whose first language was not English.<\/p>

<\/p>

Following the outcome of the consultation, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency withdrew the facility for driving test candidates to use voiceovers during theory tests and interpreters during theory and practical tests on 7 April 2014.<\/p>

The Secretary of State has set out a clear ambition that about 15% of slots made available from a new runway should be used for domestic routes.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Department\u2019s modelling, which informed the economic case for the proposed Airports National Policy Statement, is primarily intended to inform long-term strategic decision-making. It does not account for specific airport business plans or potential interventions such as Public Service Obligations (PSOs) to protect and enhance domestic connectivity. This is also clearly set out in the Appraisal Report.<\/p>

<\/p>

Under expansion, this modelling shows an initial increase of domestic flights followed by a steady decline as routes are squeezed out by the same market forces that are squeezing out marginal routes and flights today.<\/p>

<\/p>

This is why the Government has committed to use this once-in-a-generation opportunity to protect slots for domestic routes at Heathrow. The Government will consider domestic connectivity and how PSOs can be used as part of the Green Paper on the Aviation Strategy which is due to be published towards the end of this year.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-06-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-06-18T13:57:44.28Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-06-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Heathrow Airport"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what proportion of new slots at an expanded Heathrow airport were forecast to comprise public service obligation flights in the calculation of the economic case for the Airports National Policy Statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1555", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Justine Greening"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Putney"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Justine Greening"} ], "uin" : "153229"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/923279", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/923279/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Government welcomes Heathrow Airport Limited\u2019s (HAL\u2019s) pledge to introduce a £10 million Route Development Fund. HAL\u2019s commitment to this fund will provide start-up support for airlines seeking to introduce new domestic routes from an expanded Heathrow Airport. Importantly, this fund will be entirely privately funded with no contribution from the taxpayer.<\/p>

<\/p>

Government does not have any legal agreements in place with Heathrow on the fund. The proposed Airports National Policy Statement requires HAL to work constructively with its airline customers to protect and strengthen existing routes and it sets a clear expectation that expansion should deliver at least six new routes.
