The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the answer of 24 June 2026, to Question 10352, on EGNOS, whether the review is being undertaken in-house or by an external organisation; and whether HM Government would be required to pay the EU for rejoining.

Answered by Keir Mather

The Department for Transport’s review of the transport case and the practicalities of rejoining the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System (EGNOS) will be conducted by officials.

Any decision to rejoin the EGNOS programme would be subject to agreement with the European Union.
