asked the Secretary of State for Air why the Lincoln shire Kart Racing Club is charged £50 a day for the use of a disused Royal Air Force runway at Fulbeck, Lincolnshire; whether he is aware that such a charge puts in jeopardy the continued existence of this club; and whether, in future, he will charge merely a nominal sum.

£50 a day is the standard minimum charge for all events of this kind which are open to the public; for events restricted to club members and their friends the charge is only £5 a day. We are at present reviewing these charges.
