Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he is taking to improve the (a) detection and (b) management of drones around UK airports.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) regulate the use of Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (drones) to ensure the use of drones remains safe and secure.

Some airports in the UK are already using drone detection systems supplied by third parties to detect and/or manage drone activities within their airspace.
