THE Government should abandon its opposition to airport expansion and scrap proposed Air Passenger Duty increases, a report from the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) says today.
It says failure to deliver a strong aviation policy will hinder jobs and growth and says the Government could either “mark time and meander its way on” or develop a long-term aviation policy that boosted businesses and economic recovery.
BCC director general John Longworth said there is a need for a clear plan from government.
