Stansted Airport: Construction
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of expanding London Stansted Airport on the economy in (a) the East of England and (b) Bedfordshire.
- Answer
-
We have been clear that any airport expansion proposals need to demonstrate that they contribute to economic growth, can be delivered in line with the UK’s legally binding climate change commitments and meet strict environmental requirements on air quality and noise pollution.
The impacts of any planning application made by Stansted Airport to expand the airport will be carefully considered by the relevant planning authority.
