Sir Roger Gale

Conservative — Herne Bay and Sandwich

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 May 2025

Debate

Aviation Sector

Contribution

As the Minister is well aware, the Government have supported and signed off on the development consent order for Manston airport in my constituency. It is hoped and expected that the final private funding for that package will be in place and that work will start in the very near future. Will the Minister now reaffirm his support for the contribution that Manston can and will make to freight and growth in the United Kingdom, and can he also seek to expedite the necessary licences at the appropriate time?
