Ministers published on Monday (17 July) the regulator’s latest review, maintaining the CAA is still fit for purpose despite a need for improvements around efficiency and governance.
“The CAA is fit for purpose and delivers high quality services to the aviation and aerospace industry and the consumer,” said aviation minister Baroness Vere.
To provide better value for money, the government has agreed to give the CAA more enforcement powers – including the ability to fine airlines when they breach consumer law.
