Lord Kirkhope of Harrogate (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 27 November 2024

Debate

Drones: RAF Bases

Contribution

As the operator of a registered drone under the CAA, my concerns are that in this country there is a considerable and increasing number of drones being operated by people illegally. They pose a direct threat, not only to military installations and the zones around our airfields, but around civil facilities. Can the Minister comment on how much policing is going on generally, and how many prosecutions of these illegal activities are taking place?
