To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she plans to take steps to agree a reciprocal arrangement for (a) pilot and (b) engineer licenses with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency.

This Government is committed to resetting the relationship and seeking to deepen ties with our European friends, neighbours and allies. The Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) allows for potential cooperation on aviation safety in a number of areas, including on personnel licencing. The UK will continue to seek expansions in the aviation safety chapter of the TCA where appropriate.
