In regards to air quality, following designation of the Airports National Policy Statement, it is now down to an applicant for development consent to undertake a detailed assessment of the air quality impacts of its scheme, including during construction, and put forward an appropriate package of mitigations that address air quality impacts and demonstrate compliance.<\/p>
<\/p>
In order to grant development consent, I would need to be satisfied that, with mitigation, the scheme would be compliant with legal obligations.<\/p>
<\/p>
Separately, my Department will also be working to speed up the research, development and adoption of low and zero carbon aviation technology.<\/p>

Earlier this year my officials progressed a Statutory Instrument through Parliament which ensures that the UK\u2019s existing regulatory regime for ship and port security will continue to function effectively after EU Exit.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Statutory Instrument will enter into force on the day on which the UK leaves the EU. This Statutory Instrument includes provisions which enable the Government to continue to issue pre-arrival notification (PAN) exemptions to operators of vessels travelling on scheduled services from the EU into the UK after our withdrawal from the EU, even in a no deal scenario.<\/p>
<\/p>
Vessels travelling from the UK into the EU following the UK\u2019s withdrawal from the EU will need to provide the necessary pre-arrival security information for scheduled routes. Government has communicated widely with operators and has provided advice to them about the change. This was done in the form of a technical notice which can be found here;<\/p>
