Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of widening the runway at RAF Akrotiri owing to the increased size of the aircraft that use the base.
No assessment has identified a current requirement to widen the runway at RAF Akrotiri. The existing runway infrastructure fully supports the current operational requirements of the station and remains compliant with the standards set out in the Military Aviation Authority's Regulatory Articles.
