Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aircraft Noise (Dublin Airport) Regulation Bill 2018: Committee Stage (16 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: I move amendment No. 54: In page 14, line 15, after “defer,” to insert “if immediate implementation is not possible and”. I am confused myself with these amendments now.

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aircraft Noise (Dublin Airport) Regulation Bill 2018: Committee Stage (16 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: Did the Minister answer anything? Both of my colleagues made excellent points and articulated the issue better than I did.

Clare Daly: I move amendment No. 68: In page 18, line 19, after “decision” where it firstly occurs to insert “, provided it publishes in writing the reasons for its failure,”. I apologise, I am completely lost. We have been here too long and I am supposed to be in about ten other bloody places.

Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Aircraft Noise (Dublin Airport) Regulation Bill 2018: Committee Stage (16 Jan 2019)

Clare Daly: The amendment just requires that the reason for a decision be given in writing. I do not see anything wrong with that.
