Mr Richard Holden

Conservative — Basildon and Billericay

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 September 2026

Debate

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

Contribution

On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Members have not had the chance today to properly raise the NATS blackout, which has affected over 100,000 passengers and cost UK aviation tens of millions of pounds. The Secretary of State has not indicated that the Government will provide a statement today in the Chamber. Madam Deputy Speaker, can you tell me what those of us on the Opposition Benches, and all Members interested in raising issues that affect their constituents, can do to get answers from the Government?
