HC Deb 16 November 1970 vol 806 c326W
Mr. Merlyn Rees

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will set up an inquiry, on the pattern of the Roskill Inquiry into the siting of a third London airport, into the siting of an international airport for Yorkshire and Humberside.

Mr. Anthony Grant

No. If any action is required to investigate the matter it should be initiated by local interests.
