Proceeding contribution from Baroness Kramer (Liberal Democrat) 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

Does the Minister not understand that saying, ““Trust me,”” is not a satisfactory answer to people in my constituency living under the Heathrow flight path? They have had past assurances on the expansion of Heathrow, but now face terminal 6 and runway 3, the potential for additional night flights and the loss of runway alternation. At least a hard cap number gives people some degree of certainty, which is what they are asking for—if they have to live with night flights, which frankly every one of them would like to see gone.
