Original consultation

Summary

Seeks views on transferring administration of foreign aircraft permits to Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and ending the objections process.

This consultation ran from
15 April 2013 to 11:45pm on 5 July 2013

Consultation description

We are consulting on 2 proposals to reform the permits which foreign registered aircraft must obtain before they can operate in the UK or carry out aerial work under the Air Navigation Order 2009. The government proposes to:

• remove the objection process, which currently allows UK and community carriers established in the UK to object to the grant of a permit in respect of a non-scheduled flight by a foreign registered aircraft
• transfer from the Secretary of State for Transport to Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) the administration of these permits
