Mr. John Lawford at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

For the ULCCs, I think they can be very helpful to open up routes to smaller airports, but they have to be supported in some fashion beyond just the competition protection. That's why we suggested a lending library of planes. It could be something else.

Also, regional powers like Porter and—well, I'm running out of examples—WestJet could be asked to do more in their regions, and an air policy from Transport would help in that regard.
