Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Management of Passenger Numbers at Dublin Airport: Discussion

Mr. Kenny Jacobs:

We are looking to get the 65 movements changed because we think it is totally inappropriate. No one who granted planning for the north runway intended that there would be fewer flights with two runways than would be the case with one runway. We have a relevant action that is currently with An Bord Pleanála and that would move from a number of movements to a noise quota. That is what we are looking to have changed with that. That is a much better option. We agree with that, and Fingal County Council and ANCA, the noise regulator, agree with that.
