HC Deb 16 May 1977 vol 932 c58W
Mr. MacKay

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if the Government has finalised its plans for any extension of the runways at Birmingham Airport.

Mr. Clinton Davis

Consultations with the local authorities and others concerned on the document Airport Strategy for Great Britain are now completed and my right hon. Friend hopes to make a statement about future airports policy, including the role of regional airports such as Birmingham just before or just after the Summer Recess.
