<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
a decision is announced on its preference. Any work to inform an announcement will
be set out in subsequent publications and associated consultation.</p><p><strong>
