It would be utterly wrong to discriminate against anybody using this particular part of the legislation. It is anticipating a decision from the noise regulator to take a stance like that. I have no idea what decision the regulator might make but it is possible that the competent authority could decide that more noise mitigation measures are required. The Deputies seem to be anticipating that it would decide that there should be fewer restrictions but it could decide there should be more. I urge them to put their trust in the competent authority. I am prepared to do that and to accept whatever decision it makes.
