Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 June 2026

Debate

Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]

Contribution

However, I thank the noble Baroness, Lady Grey-Thompson, for her amendments on mobility aids, medical equipment and compensation for damage. These items must be handled properly and passengers must be appropriately recompensed where damage occurs. We will consider what further action is possible for domestic flights. I am also concerned that separating mobility aids from other baggage in the way proposed could have the unintended effect of excluding them from regulations made under Clause 1. I therefore ask the noble Baroness not to press those amendments.
