"This is Stunning News" - Norman Lamb welcomes RAF Coltishall Announcement

North Norfolk MP Norman Lamb has welcomed today's announcement that RAF Coltishall is set to become an aircraft recycling site.

"The local community was strongly supportive of that proposal. It's a wonderful combination of utilising the runway without the attendant problems of planes constantly taking off and landing, and the potential for job creation is really exciting at a time when we need a boost to the local economy."
