To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 7 July 2025 to Question 63005 on Prime Minister: Aviation, and with reference to the Cabinet Office Freedom of Information Act disclosure of 5 September 2025, FOI reference: FOI2025/12575, if he will place the disclosure in the Library; and what (a) is the value of the yearly payment to EDF to carbon offset flights using the C-GBNI airframe and (b) notional volume of carbon emissions are offset.

Answered by Chris Ward

I will arrange for a copy of FOI2025/12575 to be deposited in the Library of the House.

The yearly payment to carbon offset flights using the G-GBNI aircraft is calculated at the end of each financial year based on the flights that have taken place to ensure accuracy.
