To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what assessment has been made of the environmental impact of the current structure of air passenger duty.
I have been asked to reply.
No formal assessment of the environmental impact of its current structure has been made, but the Government will continue to explore options for developing economic instruments, including air passenger duty, through which improved environmental performance in the aviation sector can be incentivised.
