Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, for what reasons it is not a requirement to monitor and detect in real time organo-phosphate compounds in the cabin air of aircraft operating in and out of UK airports.
It has not been shown that cabin air exposures, either in general or following specific incidents, cause ill-health. Responsibility for introducing any additional monitoring or detection system on board a commercial aircraft is the responsibility of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
