HC Deb 26 November 1969 vol 792 c90W
68. Mr. Tilney

asked the President of the Board of Trade what is his policy regarding the rôle of Liverpool Airport in his pattern for civil aviation in the North-West area.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

It is primarily for local interests to assess the rôle of airports other than the main international gateways, and in this case for the Liverpool City Council to take account of the needs of civil aviation in the area.
