uin	58498
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/01/2017 answer text <p>We cannot be certain about the timing of the publication of draft flight paths for an expanded Heathrow Airport, because the airport operator will be leading the application for the airspace changes needed for new flight paths associated with a new runway. They will need to follow the Civil Aviation Authority’s airspace change process. It is through this process that communities will see and have the opportunity to comment on detailed proposals for any new flight paths. This process covers all aspects of the proposal including safety and environmental impacts, and a requirement to consult the communities that may be affected by the proposal.</p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 09/01/2017 16:52:05 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/11/2016 answer text <p>A third runway at Heathrow is expected to become operational in 2026 subject to the Government’s consultation on a draft National Policy Statement and the planning process. In its Strategic Fit: Forecasts report, the Airports Commission (AC) published its assessment of how much capacity at the expanded Heathrow could be used.</p><p> </p><p>Capacity is dependent on the level of future aviation demand. The AC therefore considered five alternate demand scenarios. Across these scenarios, Heathrow could reach full capacity by 2035, but in the lowest demand scenario, capacity may not be fully used until 2042.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 04/11/2016 11:50:17 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the oral statement on Airport Capacity of 25 October 2016, Official Report, column 163, on what evidential basis the figure of £61 billion was calculated for the economic benefit to the UK of expanding that airport; and what the reasons are for the difference between that figure and the £211 billion estimated by the Airports Commission.

uin	50792
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/11/2016 answer text <p>The estimate of £61 billion includes the benefits to passengers and the wider economy of a new northwest runway at Heathrow, and was derived using established government appraisal techniques. The Airports Commission’s equivalent figure for the Heathrow Northwest runway scheme was £69 billion. The difference between the Commission’s and the DfT’s estimates reflects the DfT’s further consideration of wider economic impacts included in these figures.</p><p> </p><p>Additionally, the Airports Commission used innovative modelling to estimate how airport expansion could impact on the growth in UK annual gross domestic product (GDP). The £211 billion figure represents the Commission’s estimate of the GDP impact in one of their five scenarios (“global growth”), which assumed higher global GDP growth than their central scenario. GDP and economic benefit measures are not comparable in their approach or purpose.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 01/11/2016 16:35:38 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/09/2016 answer text <p>The Airports Commission shortlisted three airport expansion schemes, two at Heathrow and one at Gatwick. The Government accepted the Commission’s shortlist in December 2015 and is considering all of the evidence very carefully before reaching a view on its preferred scheme. The Government is not providing a running commentary on this work and nor would it be appropriate to outline specific pieces of evidence before an announcement on its preference. Any work to inform an announcement will be set out in subsequent publications and associated consultation.</p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 05/09/2016 14:54:02 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes
