When the Chancellor invited proposals for a promoter to come forward with a third runway, we, as a Department and as a Government, said that we would then review the ANPS on receipt of that proposal. There was no commitment, I understand, to an autumn deadline.

I have read it, Chair.

I was nowhere near saying that. There has been nothing sclerotic about my first year in this office.

I am not sure whether that is extraordinary. This Government have generally had a clear pathway to net zero by 2050, and we are pursuing that.

We are delivering it anyway. When we get the legislative time, we will put it into legislation.

We are an evidence-based Government, or we are trying to be. That is why we have put these surveys in the field. We have three now, two on noise and one on non-CO2 tailpipe emissions. That will all be published; that will be open; that will help inform our decisions.

It is one of the biggest transport infrastructure projects this country has ever undertaken. We have only built one international runway in 80 years. That happens to be in my constituency. Therefore, the Department for Transport, I and the Secretary of State made a decision that we need to gear up for this to be well p

The estimates out there are that there will be 100,000 new jobs through the expansion of Heathrow with a third runway. We would better connect our regions, which is absolutely critical to growth in the UK. We would also massively improve freight because Heathrow—along with East Midlands, but by far and away Heathrow—is

Here we go. I will invite David to come in.

The Chancellor invited a third runway at Heathrow.

We will bring forward that evidence once we receive the proposals for a third runway from a promoter and begin to review the ANPS.

They are not claims.

We have data to say that a third runway could potentially bring 100,000 jobs to the UK economy. The supply chains have signed deals with Scunthorpe for the steel. We know that 60% of the supply chain is outside the south-east. It is not just beneficial for the south-east of England; it is beneficial for the whole count

I will allow David to come in here, because he is really the expert in how this will proceed once we receive the third runway proposal.

I am extraordinarily keen to see a successful aviation sector across all of our nations. That means improving the airspace, which I am responsible for, across the whole of the United Kingdom. That means bringing in the revenue certainty mechanism, which I am responsible for across the whole of the United Kingdom. It is
