§ Mr. McFallTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what communications have taken place between his Department and the German authorities concerning the German experience of operating a computerised low flying management system.
§ Mr. HanleyMy Department holds frequent discussions with the German authorities, at all levels. These cover a wide range of topics of mutual interest, and have included the German experience of operating a computerised low flying management system. The system in use in Germany is, however, somewhat different in scope and purpose to the automated low flying, flight planning, inquiry and notification system currently being developed for use in the United Kingdom.
