The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will reject plans to establish a quarry at the former Hatfield Aerodrome.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

Due to the quasi-judicial role of MHCLG Ministers in the planning system, I am unable to comment on the details of individual cases.
