New measures to tackle the misuse of lasers gain Royal Assent
Following BALPA's ongoing campaign to tackle laser misuse, we have today received welcome news that the new Laser Misuse (Vehicles) Act has been given Royal Assent.
This means the new laws will come into force and give police more powers to catch those who shine lasers at aircraft and tougher punishments for those caught.
