HC Deb 07 May 1973 vol 856 c7W
Mr. Nicholas Edwards

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what measurements of other phenomena have been taken to establish a basis of comparison for the readings being taken of pressure waves caused by Concorde supersonic flights.

Mr. Michael Heseltine

A number of comparative studies have been made. These show that the effects of Concorde's sonic boom are no greater than many common phenomena.
