HC Deb 13 June 1996 vol 279 c229W
Mrs. Dunwoody

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what action his Department is taking to ensure that slots for domestic services are protected at Heathrow and Gatwick airports; and if he will make a statement. [32796]

Mr. Norris

The Department of Transport is taking no such action. Recommendations 8 and 9 of the Transport Committee's report on airport capacity, published on 21 May this year, address this issue. The Department aims to respond as soon as possible to the report.
