I move amendment No. 136:

In page 39, to delete lines 21 to 23 and substitute the following:
“20C. The proposed development would cause a serious aircraft noise problem at Dublin Airport including, as appropriate, the area around Dublin Airport significantly affected by aircraft noise.”.”.

This amendment is making it clear that, should a development be refused by An Bord Pleanála on the grounds that it would cause a serious noise problem at Dublin Airport, refusal for such a reason is non-compensatable. It also makes it clear that any condition attached to a planning consent relating to measures for the regulation of aircraft noise at Dublin Airport is similarly non-compensatable.
