lpv:spoken text	"I wholeheartedly welcome my colleague Mr Bradbourn’s report on regional airports. This has received widespread support in Parliament, which is a testament to the importance of the issue. In regions such as my constituency of Northern Ireland, which could be deemed as being somewhat peripheral, the services provided by regional airports are of vital importance to individuals, businesses and the local economy in general. For me, the crucial point of this report is the call for regional airports to be given some protection and security in relation to their access to larger ‘hub’ airports. This crucial aspect of ‘connectivity’ can be put at risk if airlines decide to reallocate slots to more profitable routes. As another airline has recently decided to pull out of Belfast City Airport – resulting in a further reduction of air services for Northern Ireland – the issues raised in this report are very timely."@en1
