HC Deb 06 November 1967 vol 753 c64W
Mr. Ted Fletcher

asked the President of the Board of Trade, in view of the recommendation of the Working Party of the Economic Development Council on the movement of exports on the need for a freight airport in the North of England, what studies are being undertaken into the potential and existing facilities available at Tees-side Airport for such a development.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

Provision of facilities for air freight at Tees-side Airport is primarily the responsibility of the Tees-side Airport Authority who are, I know, anxious to do all they can to develop this traffic.
