Louise O'Reilly (Dublin Fingal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I recently met with residents who are living near Dublin Airport. They tell me that Dublin Airport is in breach of its planning permission and that residents who have never before been under the flight path are now experiencing noisy, low-flying planes daily. In the run-up to the building of the new runway, clear sites were identified that would be in the flight path and there was engagement with those residents. There is now a new cohort of families who are experiencing this noisy nightmare every day. We warned Fianna Fáil at the time that there would be issues if they pushed ahead in supporting the Fine Gael plan to have the noise regulated by a division of Fingal County Council and this has come to pass.

The Minister for Transport, Deputy Éamon Ryan, has received a lot of correspondence on this. The issues have been outlined to him and he knows what is happening. Will the Minister, Deputy Michael McGrath, ask the Minister for Transport to urgently engage with the Dublin Airport Authority to ensure that the airport sticks to the terms of its planning permission?
