HC Deb 11 August 1966 vol 733 cc377-8W
Mr. David Steel

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that the Commonwealth Games are to be held in Edinburgh in 1970, he will expedite the construction of a second runway at Edinburgh (Turnhouse) Airport.

Mr. Jay

No. I consider that the existing main runway will be adequate for all the likely traffic in 1970.
