British Prime Minister Theresa May said on Wednesday that she would ensure a vote on building a third runway at Heathrow airport would come to parliament in a timely manner, Reuters reports.
“We will ensure that this vote is brought to this House in a timely fashion - there is a requirement for it to be brought within a certain period of time and we will ensure that that happens,” May told parliament.
May’s ministers backed plans for the new runway on Tuesday, opening the way for a parliamentary vote after decades of delays.
