Alderney Airport runway planning costs exceed £1m
The money has been spent on design, project management and surveys, among other things

Planning costs for Alderney Airport's runway extension have risen above £1m according to the government body responsible for Guernsey's ports and airline.
The States Trading Supervisory Board (STSB) said £1.15m had been spent out of a budget of £1.76m.
The news comes after the estimated cost of building the extension rose by 50% to £37m earlier this month.
Deputy Peter Roffey, STSB president, said the remaining budget was "sufficient" to find a "smaller scale and more affordable solution".
Mr Roffey said the money spent so far had gone on technical advice, project management, design work and ground and environmental surveys.
