Proceeding contribution from Harry Cohen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 March 2006. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation.


Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation

The hon. Gentleman makes a good point. Government policy must deal with aviation in the round. According to the Library,"““Domestic aviation (to and from UK airports only) accounts for 0.4 per cent. of UK emissions. Only domestic aviation is included in target figures but if international aviation were to be included the figure would rise to 5.7 per cent. of UK emissions””," and"““one fifth of all international passengers are travelling to or from a UK airport.””"
