Proceeding contribution from Gwyneth Dunwoody (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Civil Aviation Bill 2005-06.


Civil Aviation Bill

Has the hon. Gentleman noticed that it is usually the case that the bigger the airport, particularly if it is a designated airport, the lower the costs? Some of us think that it would be a good idea to spread around the United Kingdom some of the flights that currently go into the cheaper, larger, noisier airports. Is that his view, or is he suggesting that we should not undercut the financial viability of airports such as Heathrow?
