Decision on Belfast City Airport passenger cap delayed
20.10.10
Northern Ireland's Environment Committee has recommended the decision over the cap on passenger numbers at Belfast City Airport is deferred. The committee made the suggestion following meetings with residents and airport officials at the Northern Ireland Assembly.
Currently no more than two million seats can be sold from the airport in a year. Environment Minister Edwin Poots suggested removing the cap, but Committee chair Cathal Boylan said yesterday that more public consultation was needed, and therefore recommended the minister take the decision in tandem with a public inquiry into a runway extension at the airport.
