Proceeding contribution from Damian Collins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Civil Aviation Bill.


Civil Aviation Bill

My hon. Friend's constituency is 30 miles or so from mine. I am sure that his constituents and mine share that concern. Extra runway capacity in the south-east of England is a way to manage aviation much more effectively and reduce planes' stacking time. Although some might say that increasing aviation capacity might lead to environmental pollution, much better management of planes in the air would significantly reduce it. It is a serious point, and the CAA should think of it when considering the air passenger experience.
