§
Motion made, and Question put forthwith, pursuant to Standing Order No. 102 (European Standing Committees).
That this House takes note of European Community Document No. 4496/91 and the Supplementary Explanatory Memorandum submitted by the Department of Transport on 3rd February 1992, relating to the allocation of slots at Community airports; notes that the principle of efficient, neutral and transparent airport co-ordination is in line with the Government's aims; notes the strengths of the existing worldwide system of slot allocation; and endorses the Government's intention to respond to the draft Regulation on the premise that any change to the system should benefit users without creating practical difficulties for the civil aviation industry, and without substantially extending the role of governments in slot allocation.—[Mr. David Davis.]
§ Question agreed to.
