The Regional Airports Programme 2021-2025 provides that a mid-term review be undertaken in 2023. My Department carried out a public consultation process last year to inform the review and officials have submitted their assessment to me which I am now considering.

The review has considered the scope of the Programme, how it is currently delivering on its objectives, primarily in the context of how international connectivity and services to and from the regions can be maintained and enhanced, whilst also exploring how balanced regional development is being supported. I will be engaging with colleagues across Government in reaching a conclusion on the review.
