The U.K. Government is responsible for creating its own Aviation Security regulations, policies and standards. These are prepared and issued by the Department for Transport and implementation is monitored by the Civil Aviation Authority. Due to the sensitive nature of the content, most aviation security publications are deemed to be security-sensitive and are only issued to relevant persons on a ’need-to-know’ basis.
