HC Deb 19 March 1969 vol 780 cc106-7W
80. Mr. Ellis

asked the President of the Board of Trade what consideration he has given to the conclusions reached, at the meeting on 21st August, 1968 between his officials and representatives of other organisations, on meteorological services at airports; whether he is satisfied that the facilities at Bristol Airport for written forecasts and the provision of synoptic charts supplemented by individual briefing across the table or by telephone are adequate; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. William Rodgers

The meeting on 21st August was part of a review of the meteorological requirements of all civil aerodromes in the United Kingdom. The review is still proceeding and conclusions have not yet been reached. The level of meteorological services at Bristol Airport is a matter for the Bristol Corporation.
