WQ84485 (e) Tabled on 08/02/2022

Will the Minister confirm the total costs to date for staffing, facilities and any retainer paid to the airline for maintaining the Anglesey air link while the service has been suspended?

Answered by Deputy Minister for Climate Change | Answered on 17/02/2022

The total spend to date for the airline operator contract and Anglesey Airport costs is: £2,163,361.83 for the period 1 April 2020 to 31 January 2022 inclusive.

In March 2020, the service operated a part month, so an exact figure cannot be calculated therefore this month has been excluded from our calculation.
