Business question from Bob Russell (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 February 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Two months ago, in a written statement, the Secretary of State for International Development said that there would be a pause in the negotiations for an airport on the island of St. Helena, which the Government had long promised and for which the contract was about to be awarded. Two months is more than a pause. Will the Leader of the House arrange for the Secretary of State to come to the House and hold a debate on why there has been such a long delay to the promised airport on St. Helena?
