Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Summer Plans for Dublin and Cork Airports: DAA
1:10 pm
Mr. Kenny Jacobs:
We absolutely can. Fingal County Council asked whether we could put one in a specific part of Boroimhe, which we did. We have 20 permanent and temporary monitors. We will take the view of Fingal County Council and the aircraft noise competent authority in terms of the best places to put them. The temporary ones are good because they can be moved around to provide data and we can then tell the committee where there was noise. We want to have more of these and possibly move them around so people get the reassurance and we get all of the data in terms of where the noise levels are at. If we go from having 20 to 30 of them, we are fine with that.
