HC Deb 15 December 1965 vol 722 cc301-2W
138. Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Minister of Aviation what action he is taking to encourage airlines to develop scheduled services to and from Dundee.

Mr. Stonehouse

The development of such services is, subject to licensing requirements, a matter for the airlines themselves. I sympathise with Dundee's desire for services but unfortunately, despite repeated enquiries in the past, neither B.E.A. nor any independent operator has yet considered the traffic adequate to support them.
