2024 Consultation on the Future Direction of the UK Aviation Environmental Review

Closed 10 Dec 2024

Opened 1 Oct 2024

Overview

The CAA is seeking views on the future development of the UK Aviation Environmental Review (AER). We aim to develop the AER into a comprehensive and robust tool that can be used by Government, industry and other interested stakeholders to inform and drive positive environmental change. To ensure the AER develops into a useful tool for stakeholders, this consultation seeks feedback on:

  1. the overall ambition and aims for the AER; and
  2. the nature of environmental data reported within the AER, including how this data should be presented.

The consultation is open between 1 October 2024 and 10 December 2024.

Why your views matter

Following this consultation, we will publish a consultation response document summarising all responses received from stakeholders. This document will set out how we have taken stakeholder views into account and how they will inform the future direction of the AER. 
 
We will also establish an AER roadmap setting out how we will evolve the AER over the coming years, starting from 2025, to ensure it remains relevant, useful and aligned with our overall ambition for the work. This roadmap will take into account responses received to this consultation from stakeholders. 
 
We aim to publish the consultation response document and AER roadmap by summer 2025.
