Space Industry Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Fox (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 November 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Space Industry Bill [HL].

The nature of this work, certainly in the early stages, could be quite lumpy. In earlier discussions —at Second Reading, I think—the Minister talked about perhaps only 12 launches a year. There could be moments of great intensity of activity followed by no activity and therefore no income. How will the regulator maintain this level of expertise through what could be feast and famine during that process?
