I move on to Amendment 101A from my noble friend Lord Barber of Ainsdale and Amendment 112 from my noble friend Lord Tunnicliffe; I note the constructive remarks from the noble Baroness, Lady Foster, and my noble friend Lord Tunnicliffe, with their deep knowledge of these issues. The Government recognise the importance of having a robust flight crew, particularly pilots, to support the safe and efficient operation of commercial airline services in the United Kingdom. The CAA already engages closely with industry, training organisations and unions to monitor workforce issues. It maintains statutory registers of licence holders, in accordance with the UK aircrew regulations and the Air Navigation Order 2016, and also requires the CAA to publish annual data on active licence holders in its annual report, which is available on its website.
