Mr Andrew Snowden

Conservative — Fylde

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 September 2026

Debate

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

Contribution

My right hon. Friend rightly points out the tax increases that airports are facing combined with business rates and increased regulations. We are trying to build a business case for commercial flights from Blackpool airport again, and such things make it really hard for airports that are trying to reopen routes and start new ones. Does he agree that that should be looked at?
