§ 62. Mr. Gordon Campbellasked the President of the Board of Trade why the closure of Inverness airport for two weeks for work on runways was announced at short notice, causing a reduction in the scheduled flights from the alternative airport at Lossiemouth.
§ Mr. Goronwy RobertsNotice was admittedly short but the work was becoming rather urgent and we wished to take advantage of the unexpected availability of Lossiemouth during the second half of November. A longer notice would probably have resulted in Lossiemouth being able to accept few or none of the flights prevented from using Dalcross.
