2026-07-20 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I will now make a short statement on the position regarding legislative consent on the Bill. The Government accept that legislative consent from the Northern Ireland Assembly would be required for Clauses 1, 5 and 11. These clauses cover areas

My Lords, the Government have brought forward a minor and technical amendment. Schedule 1 to the Bill currently amends Schedule 5 to the Consumer Rights Act 2015 to refer us to a statement of enforcement policy prepared by a direct enforcement authority.

That the Bill do now pass.
2026-07-20 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, no more puns. I have two brief points. First, the noble Lord just referred to the new Clause 7; we will see what happens in the other place on that. I am particularly pleased that the noble Lord, Lord Empey, spoke this afternoon. I am quite
2026-07-20 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
I know—sorry. There is only one more like that. The Bill is focused on strengthening consumer rights and protections, reforming aviation regulation and enhancing aviation safety. Your Lordships’ contributions have ensured that the Bill leaves this place

2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
The answer to that is that the Secretary of State does not have any power to intervene because, as I said, the core principle of the slot allocation regime is that slots are allocated by an independent co-ordinator. There are suggestions from noble Lords
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I am grateful to noble Lords for these amendments and for the thoughtful debate we have had on the slots regime. I will deal with the amendments in the name of the noble Lord, Lord Grayling, before turning to those from the noble Lords, Lord Em
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I begin with Amendment 41. I thank the noble Lord, Lord Kirkhope of Harrogate, for this and for his kind remarks. I also heard the noble Viscount, Lord Goschen, and other noble Lords clearly on this subject. General aviation is an important

I think I have explained that to the noble Lord. I certainly feel that I have.
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, the next group concerns airspace modernisation, consultation and charging. I begin by thanking the noble Baroness, Lady Grender, for retabling her amendment, and I have also heard the noble Lord, Lord Grayling, and the noble Baroness, Lady Bray
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
I defer absolutely to the noble Baroness’s far superior knowledge. I think what she is referring to is the review that is currently being undertaken.
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
I am referring to choices in the method of access to the airports, rather than the choice of airport itself.
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
I thank the noble Lords, Lord Moylan and Lord Empey, for re-tabling their amendments on airport drop-off charges. I will address them together. I understand the concerns behind these amendments. Passengers should have clear, accessible information abo
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I will begin with the amendments tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Grayling, on financial penalties and powers of entry. Clause 1 does not create financial penalties or powers of entry; it simply enables such powers to be conferred by future regul
2026-07-13 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I begin with Amendments 34 and 37, tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Empey, and the noble Baroness, Lady Finlay of Llandaff. The department takes cabin air quality seriously. Commercial aircraft must already meet certification requirements for ven
