Mr Kelvin Thomson
asked the Minister for Trade, upon notice, on 27 May 1997:
(1) Has his attention been drawn to a recent edition of the Moonee Valley Gazette which refers to a letter of support from him to the Keep Essendon Airport Committee.
(2) Did he seek or receive advice from the Minister for Transport and Regional Development, or the Minister's office, before writing to the Keep Essendon Airport Committee: if so, what was that advice.
(3) Is his support for Essendon Airport based on a belief that safety procedures at the airport are adequate; if so, on what information is his view based.
(4) Did he inform the House of Representatives in 1985 (Hansard , 23 August 1985, page 303) that in the preceding 8 years there had been 10 cases of large passenger aircraft attempting to land at Essendon Airport instead of Tullamarine Airport; if so, how does this reconcile with his recent support for the airport.
Mr Tim Fischer
—The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:
(1) Yes.
(2) This aspect of the matter is internal to Government.
(3) a. Yes b. Its continuing official clearance for operations.
(4) Yes, but this is not a problem created by the existence of the original airport at Essendon.
