Answer
Competent Authorities have a duty to draw up, review and revise action plans under the Environmental Noise Regulations 2006.
I can advise that in compliance with these noise regulations George Best Belfast City Airport has already submitted an Action Plan to my department which has been independently appraised by an external contractor. My officials have and continue to work and engage with senior airport officials to agree this plan which once finalised will be published.
