HL Deb 08 December 1980 vol 415 cc635-6WA
Lord Ponsonby of Shulbrede

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will estimate the potential gain to British Airways in 1981–82 of the introduction of a security levy charge for non-passenger carrying aircraft of 50p per tonne or part thereof of landed weight.

Lord Trefgarne

The information necessary for making such an estimate could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
