Dr. Glynasked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will take steps to ensure that British Airways do not purchase 20 Boeing 737 airliners to replace 416W their obsolescent Trident aircraft and that they purchase quieter aircraft with a high proportion of British-made components such as the A200 airbus even at the expense of a longer delay in delivery.
