HC Deb 30 June 1967 vol 749 c152W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the President of the Board of Trade when and in what circumstances it was decided to increase the number of runways on the proposed third London airport at Stansted.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

The intention for the present as explained at the public inquiry, is that Stansted should have a second runway in addition to that already existing. Should it become necessary, however, the Stansted site could accommodate two more parallel runways.
