PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(25 November 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of night-time flight noise on wildlife living in Gatwick Airport's flight path.

Asked by:
Mike Martin (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

A proposal to expand use of the northern runway at Gatwick Airport is currently subject to a live application for a Development Consent Order, which will be determined by my Department. It would therefore not be appropriate for me to comment but all relevant matters, including safety and noise, will be thoroughly considered before a decision is issued, the statutory deadline for which is 27 February 2025.
