Civil Aviation Bill

The hon. and learned Gentleman spends a lot of time on this subject and has a great deal of knowledge about the previous Government’s relationship with those three airports. We listen to what is said. I understand that he has a difference of opinion on Nottingham East Midlands airport. It is important that the airport consults residents and the local community and involves them in the process. We think that the situation is best dealt with locally for such airports.
