HC Deb 13 January 1986 vol 89 c522W
Mr. Stern

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list, for all airfields in the United Kingdom owned or substantially used by his Department, all buildings which are frequently used or occupied by more than 1,000 members of the public for recreational purposes and which are within two miles of the airfield perimeter.

Mr. Lee

The public are admitted to airfields owned by my Department for various purposes, including air displays such as the Farnborough air show, open days and sporting events, but we have no knowledge of the purposes to which buildings beyond our perimeter are put. That is a matter for the local planning authority concerned.
