Commonwealth Communications (Aden)

HC Deb 31 January 1956 vol 548 cc105-6W

Mr. P. Williams

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what consideration has been given to the development of Aden as a link in the civil aviation communications of the Commonwealth.

Mr. Watkinson

Aden is already being used to the extent justified by its geographical position and present traffic requirements. The possible future use of this aerodrome in the Commonwealth network will be kept under review.
