19 May 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550)

You would be able to afford your resilience measures.

14 May 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

Very briefly, and my apologies for running late. If you have covered it, say so. I have two quick questions. The European report said that the growth in aviation would account for the SAF that is now to be included and, therefore, the emissions level would still be the same. That is first question, if you could comment

Can I turn to our other two witnesses and ask if they have anything that they would like to add on the topic of noise pollution? To what extent can communities be supported and compensated for the impacts that noise pollution is having on them? Does that compensation in any way mitigate the impact on those communities?

That is what we need. Thank you. Can you talk us through perhaps the regulations around noise pollution for airports? Are they strong enough? Could they play an additional role in any future airport expansion?

14 May 2025Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831)

I understand that, but that was not the question that I asked. If you cannot provide the evidence now, perhaps you could write to us. It would be helpful if you could set out for the Committee, perhaps in writing, any studies that have looked specifically at the impact on airport communities versus a control group wher

The written evidence that we have received speaks of the impacts of noise pollution causing noise-induced hearing loss, high blood pressure, heart disease, sleep disturbances and stress, as well as what you have termed the annoyance element, the cognitive impairment, the sleep disturbance and the cardiovascular disease
