HC Deb 05 July 1967 vol 749 cc264-5W
113. Mr. Derek Page

asked the Minister of Technology what steps he is taking to reduce sonic boom effects in The Wash coast area.

Mr. Stonehouse

The Royal Aircraft Establishment, Bedford, has made a series of test flights at supersonic speeds over The Wash coast area during the past few weeks. These have now been completed. They have no direct connection with the programme of tests about which I informed the House yesterday.
