London Southend Airport Company Ltd has been involved in the development of the JAAP and has been supportive of the overall direction of the plan. Section 1.6 will need to be updated and could be headed 'National Aviation Policy Framework and Airports Commission'. The text could then note the relevant points from the final version of the APF and should also note that the Government has set up the Airports Commission, whose interim and final reports will emerge in 2013 and 2105 respectively. The recommendations of Airports Commission are expected to inform the preparation of an Airports National Policy Statement by the next Government which may have a potentially significant impact on Southend Airport.
