HC Deb 25 March 1969 vol 780 c241W
69. Sir J. Vaughan-Morgan

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will set up a public inquiry into the proposed 875-foot extension to the eastern end of the Gatwick runway in view of local concern.

Mr. K. Robinson

The British Airports Authority has made an application to the Dorking and Horley Rural District Council for planning permission for this extension. My right hon. Friend sees no reason, at this stage, to intervene.
