LONDON - The Department of Transport said on Tuesday that Manchester airport would be able to set its own charges rather than having them regulated by the independent regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).

Stansted airport would continue to have the maximum level of its charges set by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), Transport Minister Ruth Kelly said in a statement.
