The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether the economic and environmental review of Heathrow expansion has been completed.

Answered by Keir Mather

The economic and environmental review of Heathrow expansion is ongoing. We intend to consult on a revised Airports National Policy Statement (ANPS), which will include the proposed outcomes of the review, in summer this year. The review will not be complete until the final ANPS (post-consultation) is laid in Parliament, which we intend to do by the end of the year.
