Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
The Government’s position remains consistent. The Prime Minister may have changed but the Government’s position remains that the Davies commission was commissioned to look specifically at airport capacity in the south-east. As I said earlier, there are three options on the table and they are all being considered.
Lord Mawhinney (Con)
My Lords, my noble friend Lord Spicer asked when the Government’s decision will be announced. I wonder whether my noble friend could answer that Question.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
The best answer I can give is that the Government will be looking to make that decision very shortly.
