Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 February 2026
364. Deputy Denise Mitchell asked the Minister for Transport his plans to review the residential noise insulation scheme at Dublin Airport, in light of the increased number of night time flights and the disruption noise from these flights is having on residents of local communities; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11665/26]
View answerI want to begin by assuring the Deputy that it is important to this Government in ensuring the sustainable development of Dublin Airport, to balance the legitimate rights of local residents who are concerned about noise levels at the airport, with the objectives of the National Aviation Policy, and the needs of business and tourism.
As the Residential Sound Insulation Grant Scheme falls within the remit of daa, I have forwarded your question to daa for direct response. Please advise my private office if you have not received a reply within 10 working days.
