Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment has she made of the potential impact of the conflict in the middle east on uk aviation due to aviation fuel prices and supply disruption.

The UK fuel system is built on diverse international supply chains, with multiple import routes and suppliers, ensuring resilience.

My Department and I are working closely with the industry to monitor supply and understand their mitigations and alternative sourcing options. We will continue to monitor the situation closely, and work with airlines and airports to understand mitigations, should any disruption arise.
