Catherine McKinnell, the MP for Newcastle upon Tyne North said the future economic growth in the regions was being put at risk.
"The government are facing critical decisions that will determine the future of the UK’s aviation sector, which in turn will have a major impact on regional economies," McKinnell said.
"Those decisions are not new and include where to build the new runway to provide the capacity we need for the future and how properly to support regional airports during a time of considerable upheaval with devolution."
A special debate took place in parliament on the subject of regional airports in the wake of the government delaying a decision on whether to build a new runway at Heathrow or Gatwick.
