HC Deb 20 November 1969 vol 791 cc371-2W
Sir G. Sinclair

asked the President of the Board of Trade what were the numbers of night jet flights at Gatwick in the period 1st April to 31st October, 1969; and what is his estimate for night jet flights for the same period in 1970.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

4,509. Useful estimates for 1970 cannot yet be made.

Sir G. Sinclair

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, following his undertaking to consider limitations of night jet flights at Gatwick for 1971 and beyond, he will initiate special studies on the methods of control to be adopted there, in view of the fact that the bulk of Gatwick traffic is unscheduled.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

Yes, early next year.
