HC Deb 14 May 1965 vol 712 cc123-4W
Mr. G. Johnson Smith

asked the Minister of Aviation why he refused to allow representatives of the Noise Abatement Society to attend the sonic boom tests recently carried out by his Department.

Mr. Stonehouse

When I was approached by the Society I had to inform them that we could not accommodate any more visitors at Upwood itself, but I told them how they could hear the bangs and I am glad to see they listened from the adjoining village of Ramsey.
