**Gatwick Airport, Britain’s second largest airport** and the busiest single-runway airport in the world, has submitted a proposal to the Airports Commission for a second runway, positioned to the south of the current site.

**Mike Weatherley**, the Conservative MP for Hove and Portslade, is urging local residents and businesses to send him their views on the proposal.

**Mike said:**

> *“The operators of Gatwick have submitted an important proposal which has the potential to help our local economy. Brighton & Hove has a large number of people who work within the airline industry and the expansion of Gatwick could mean a huge amount of investment will come our way, which is why I hope that local residents and businesses will let me know how they feel about the proposal.”*
