The CMA responded to the Airport slot allocation system reform consultation, led by the Department for Transport (DfT). This consultation was run under the 2022 to 2024 Sunak Conservative government, and following the election period the CMA is publishing in line with usual practice.
The CMA's response endorses the proposed changes in the consultation, aimed at improving the current system. The response also explains why the CMA recommends going further and makes the case for market-based mechanisms to allocate airport slots, by drawing upon the CMA's previous advice and consultation responses in this sector.
