‘BAA break-up not answer to poor service problem’
Mr Walsh was quoted in the British media as saying that instead of BAA being forced to sell three of its seven airports, as proposed by the Competition Commission last week, the Civil Aviation Authority should administer stronger regulations to encourage better service.
BAA — which owns the three main London airports of Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted — was told by the commission that it would likely have to sell two of its London airports and one of either Edinburgh or Glasgow airports in an attempt to promote better competition in the sector.
