HC Deb 02 May 1969 vol 782 cc308-9W
Sir R. Russell

asked the President of the Board of Trade what plans he has for setting up a rescue service to deal with accidents occurring to jumbo jets after these aircraft come into service.

Mr. William Rodgers

Aerodrome licensees are required to provide fire and rescue services to scales set out in the Board's licensing publication CAP 168. A recently revised draft of this document includes requirements for jumbo-jets similar to those agreed by the International Civil Aviation Organisation.
