HC Deb 12 July 1972 vol 840 c356W
53. Mr. Brian Harrison

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will define the terms of reference for the Progress Review Committee on the Third London Airport; and how soon and how often it will meet.

Mr. Eldon Griffiths

The Progress Review Committee is an advisory body comprising central and local government, the main executive agencies and expert outside advice. Its function is to keep the broad development of the Maplin project under review and discuss problems of mutual concern. It last met on 6th July.

As my right hon. Friend informed my hon. Friend in answer to his Question on 10th July, he anticipates it meeting about every two months.
