Ministers: Aviation
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he the Government has plans to reduce the use of non-scheduled flights by Ministers.
Answered by Georgia Gould
Ministerial travel is undertaken using efficient and cost-effective travel arrangements. Security considerations are also taken into account. Travel plans will always vary and are decided with consideration of the best use of a Minister’s time and in the interests of the taxpayer. As was the practice under the previous Government, information about official overseas ministerial travel will be published as part of the Cabinet Office transparency returns and made available on the GOV.UK website.
