§ Mr. Elystan Morganasked the Minister of State for Defence if he will himself attend a conference of Welsh local authorities to discuss the problems caused by low-flying military aircraft or alternatively arrange for a junior Minister to attend the same.
§ Mr. KershawNo. I am very conscious of the problems which military low-flying training can cause in the districts concerned, but these are unfortunately the inescapable costs of maintaining a modern efficient Air Force. Every effort is already made to keep disturbance to a minimum, but if the local authorities concerned would write to me on any specific points about which they are concerned I will see that they receive careful attention.
