HC Deb 08 November 1989 vol 159 cc657-8W
Mr. Alan Williams

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what details are required as standard operational practice before the competent authority authorises a flight by military aircraft operating within the United Kingdom airspace; and why no central records are kept of unauthorised low flights by military aircraft.

Mr. Neubert

The requirement for information varies according to the circumstances. No central records are kept of unauthorised low flights because none is required.
