HC Deb 17 March 1970 vol 798 c100W
Captain Kerby

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will provide the hon. Member for Arundel and Shoreham with a copy of his Department's recent survey into the future of air transport in the South and West, in which it is laid down that no airport is likely to be developed on any existing West Sussex airfield or aerodrome, or on any new site in the county.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

No such survey has been made by the Board of Trade. A survey into the airport requirements of South Hampshire has been commissioned by the South Hampshire Plan Advisory Committee, with financial support from the Board of Trade, and is currently being undertaken by aviation consultants. The consultants' final report is expected shortly.
