HC Deb 22 November 1967 vol 754 c335W
50. Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the President of the Board of Trade when he will provide at Turnhouse Airport, Edinburgh, a second runway adequate for modern passenger aircraft.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

The timing of a second runway is dependent on a number of factors, mainly that of B.E.A.'s aircraft replacement programme. A decision will be reached as soon as practicable.
