HC Deb 27 October 1970 vol 805 c91W
Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will reduce the number of night flights permitted at Heathrow Airport during next summer.

Mr. Noble

No. I have decided to keep the limit of summer night jet flights at 3,500 for the summer of 1971 despite the growing operational and financial burden on the aidlines that this restriction which has remained unchanged for several years, represents.
