Angela Crawley – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Angela Crawley on 2016-09-12.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the potential effect of the UK leaving the EU on the protection of passenger rights in the UK.

Andrew Jones

The Government is considering carefully all the potential implications arising from the UK’s exit from the EU, including the implications for passenger rights. Until we leave, EU law still applies, so EU rules on passenger rights will continue to apply in the UK, alongside national rules.
