| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “We would expect to see growth straightaway. Heathrow announced last week a £10 billion package over the next five years to improve its terminals and reduce its carbon footprint. It signed a deal with the Scunthorpe Steelworks. The steel for its new landing bays will be sourced from the UK. Some 60% of that £10 billion …” | 101 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “We made some decisions about Luton. The Secretary of State overturned the planners’ decision on 3 April. It will go from 19 million passengers to 32 million passengers. Your key question is about noise and air pollution, which is probably going to be a theme for a few minutes of this. Chris, I grew up under the flight …” | 215 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “When we receive the proposals for a third runway, we will then look at the airports national policy statement, which was last reviewed in 2019. It clearly needs updating. It is seven or eight years old. We are in a new era. That is what we will do. We already know that this is 100,000 jobs, improved freight and improve…” | 115 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “When the Chancellor invited proposals for a promoter to come forward with a third runway, we, as a Department and as a Government, said that we would then review the ANPS on receipt of that proposal. There was no commitment, I understand, to an autumn deadline.” | 46 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “We have asked a promoter to come up with proposals for a third runway by the end of this month. We will then review the airports national policy framework. We will be making changes to the national policy framework. It is already leading to growth because both my Department and particularly Heathrow are scaling up to m…” | 78 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “The point about non-CO2 air pollution is really important. This is an area that we do not know enough about. We do not know enough about the warming effects of contrails from our aircraft. That is why we have another study on non-CO2 impacts, which is a research and development programme that we are spending about £29 …” | 124 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “In terms of aviation emissions, they are a small part of the Department for Transport’s emissions, but what happens is that they grow over time, because it is the much harder bit to decarbonise.” | 34 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “No, that has already been announced.” | 6 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “You are right. The dial is moving to the right on carbon. That is because we have not had a Government that have been making some of the decisions that have needed to be made for quite some time. I am hopeful now that we do have a Government and a strategy that will bring that carbon target back to the centre, so that …” | 130 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “These are binding targets.” | 4 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “We want to be fully informed on nose and tailpipe emissions, whatever they contain, so that we are fully informed in the decisions that we are making.” | 27 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “I am Mike Kane. I am the Minister for Aviation, Maritime and Security. I will allow my officials to introduce themselves.” | 21 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “Demand management in aviation is a matter for aviation. I just think that we may be on slightly different pages here, Chair, and I would like to get to a place of consensus. Are the carbon taxes, in your opinion or ours, demand management? What about CORSIA or ETS? Are we talking about restricting people from flying?” | 57 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “We have data to say that a third runway could potentially bring 100,000 jobs to the UK economy. The supply chains have signed deals with Scunthorpe for the steel. We know that 60% of the supply chain is outside the south-east. It is not just beneficial for the south-east of England; it is beneficial for the whole count…” | 58 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “In addition to the CBI, the Federation of Small Businesses and the British Chamber of Commerce, which are very clearly for this, our analysis—” | 24 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “It is one of the biggest transport infrastructure projects this country has ever undertaken. We have only built one international runway in 80 years. That happens to be in my constituency. Therefore, the Department for Transport, I and the Secretary of State made a decision that we need to gear up for this to be well p…” | 68 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “As part of the ANPS, we will produce the data that underpins those claims.” | 14 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “Here we go. I will invite David to come in.” | 10 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “They are ambitious, and we are off target, but that is why we are introducing the measures that we are taking as part of the new Government. In terms of the mixing up of the carbon, I will look to others.” | 41 |
| 16 Jul 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “Let us lay out our response to the CCC in due course, and then we can come back at some stage.” | 21 |
