HC Deb 17 December 1974 vol 883 c404W
Mr. Tebbit

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he now expects to designate Gatwick, Stansted, Prestwick and Edinburgh airports under the Policing of Airports Act.

Dr. Summerskill

Detailed discussions are now taking place between the British Airports Authority and the police authorities and chief officers of police concerned. My right hon. Friends the Home Secretary and the Secretary of State for Scotland hope to lay designation orders before the House early in the new year.
