UK-US Flights

One of my collegues was at Cwl over the weekend to service a Thomson long haul departure to Miami-Acapulco. where there was some sort of proceedural delay, speaking to one of the duty managers he was told that some US agency was seeking to have all US bound flights to operate from one of only five UK airports, theses being Heathrow,Gatwick,Manchester,Birmingham and Glasgow and he went on to say this will effect Bristol with its Continental and this summers Thomson long haul Florida and Caribean series.Have heard nothing about this but the Duty Manager at Cwl was adament this was to be, i can't see it, but has anyone heard of this or its supposed reason ?
