HC Deb 13 March 1989 vol 149 c113W
57. Mr. Snape

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport in the light of the recent international conference on aviation security in Montreal, what action he intends to take to improve security at British airports.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State attended the ministerial meeting of the ICAO council on 15–16 February. We explained to my hon. Friend for Spelthorne (Mr. Wilshire) on 21 February at column556 that the purpose of that meeting was to agree work which member states will take forward through CAO rather than individually.
