Single European Sky And Air Traffic Controllers

EDM number 330 in 2013-14, proposed by Ian Lavery on 01/07/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Aviation and EU law and treaties.

That this House is concerned that the European Commission is planning legislative changes to implement Single European Sky (SES) 2+ for 2020; notes that the changes will result in a loss of air traffic control staff and operations' centres across the EU; further notes that legislative changes will result in poorer service quality, delays to passengers, poorer safety and could result in the UK relinquishing control over its own sovereign civil and military airspace; and calls on the Government to put pressure on the European Commission to engage constructively with air traffic management staff and ensure that changes under SES will not result in air traffic management staff being cut and rather that the UK will be able to retain the ability to control its own airspace.

This motion has been signed by a total of 24 MPs.
