Aviation: Fuels
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with a) the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland and b) members of the Northern Ireland Executive on the potential impact of jet fuel shortages on travel between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Answered by Keir Mather
The Government is monitoring the impact of the conflict in the Middle East on fuel supplies, including jet fuel. In coordination with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero we have worked with fuel suppliers, airlines and airports to understand levels of jet fuel and pricing.
Officials are engaging regularly with their counterparts in the Northern Ireland Executive and keeping Ministers briefed as necessary.
