HC Deb 18 December 1985 vol 89 c167W
Mr. Stern

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list, for all airfields in the United Kingdom licensed by his Department, all buildings which are frequently used or occupied by more than 1,000 members of the public for recreational purposes; and which are within two miles of the airfield perimeter.

Mr. Michael Spicer

Neither the Civil Aviation Authority (which is responsible for aerodrome licensing) nor the Department keep records in sufficiently comprehensive form to enable them to compile such a list: to create such records would be inordinately expensive.
