Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make it his policy to give the Civil Aviation Authority power to directly fine airlines who break consumer law.

The Government consulted, as part of the Aviation Consumer Policy Reform Consultation in 2022, on whether the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) should be given additional administrative powers to enforce consumer protections laws. It is reviewing the responses to the consultation and will respond in due course.
