Mace chief executive Mark Reynolds has slammed the government鈥檚 decision to delay responding to the Davies Commission as 鈥渁ppalling鈥�.

Speaking in Parliament, prime minister David Cameron told MPs a response to the Davies Commission鈥檚 final report on expanding airport capacity in the South-east would be made by the end of the year.

The Commission unanimously recommended Heathrow for a new runway, saying it presented the 鈥済reatest strategic and economic benefits鈥�.

Speaking to 好色先生TV, Reynolds (pictured) said the delay was 鈥渁ppalling鈥� and called on the government to look past 鈥減olitical nimbyism鈥�.

He said of the delay: 鈥淚t鈥檚 appalling. Seeing what David Cameron said, that鈥檚 all good but it鈥檚 not about political nimbyism. They鈥檝e just got to get through all that.鈥�

He added: 鈥淚 don鈥檛 understand why they need another six months to make a decision. The sooner we can get on with it and it can be delivered, the more sustainable jobs we can create.鈥�

Reynolds also confirmed Mace is interested in bidding for work on the third runway, and would be interested at 鈥渆ither Gatwick or Heathrow鈥� if a decision was made to build a new runway elsewhere.

When asked if Mace was interested, he replied: 鈥淥f course we are. We have the skills, ability and capacity in programme project management and construction delivery. We would win our fair share of packages.鈥�

Reynolds also called the Commission鈥檚 recommendation a 鈥渘o-brainer鈥� and said it is 鈥渢he right option for UK plc, and by far the best option for growth, jobs and our status in Europe and the world.鈥�

Reynolds has worked with Heathrow since joining Mace in 1996, and was responsible for overseeing delivery of the airport鈥檚 terminal five.
