answer text: The Government considered various options on how to support English regional airports against the impacts of Scottish devolution as part of the consultation “Options for supporting English regional impacts of air passenger duty devolution”. There was no stakeholder consensus for a structural change to the way that Air Passenger Duty (APD) is levied. The Government response to the consultation was published at Autumn Statement 2016. This indicated that the Government would keep the issue under review and would return to it once the UK leaves the European Union. Rates of APD are kept under review and the Chancellor announces any changes at fiscal events. Rates for 2019-20 will be set at Autumn Budget 2017.
