HC Deb 11 May 1987 vol 116 c101W
Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what has been the total amount paid each year since 1979 by the British Airports Authority for security at each of its airports.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Before the winding up of the aviation security fund in April 1983 BAA's security costs were reimbursed from the fund. In 1982–83, the final year of the fund, the payment to BAA, excluding that in respect of policing, was £20,592,422, made up as follows:

£
Heathrow 12,493,114
Gatwick 4,294,867
Glasgow 1,746,362
Stansted 290,770
Edinburgh 783,840
Aberdeen 711,569
Prestwick 271,920

Corresponding figures for earlier years are not immediately available. The costs incurred since the fund was wound up are entirely a matter for BAA.
