Sir Howard, the chairman of the Airports Commission, told the Today programme on Radio 4: “Brexit is being seen as an insular sign, a nation turning in on itself.” He said that a commitment to airport expansion in London was seen globally as “a touchstone” of the UK’s vision. Sir Howard Davies, chairman of the Airports Commission The Davies Commission concluded that a third runway at Heathrow would bring the greatest benefits, generating up to £147bn in GDP impacts over 60 years and creating more than 70,000 new jobs. Sir Howard Davies urged a swift rubber-stamping of his recommendation, saying: “If a new prime minister could make a decision quickly, it could be ready by 2026.” The three-year investigation by the Davies Commission is estimated to have cost up to £20m.
