"Mr President, as an MEP representing London, this is a subject very dear to the hearts of millions of my constituents. London is home to the world’s busiest airport, Heathrow. Huge numbers of people live under its very active flight paths and are disrupted by noise on a daily basis. This report introduced operating restrictions in accordance with the ICAO balanced approach, to help limit the number of people affected by the harmful effects of aircraft noise. Whilst I did have some concerns about the initial proposals, which would have had a negative impact on some of our regional airports and local businesses to the detriment of local employment, the report in its current form has come up with a balanced and suitable compromise. Furthermore, the provision allowing for representatives of affected residents is a positive move in recognising their needs, as well as involving them in the process on a consultative basis. This aspect, I believe, has the potential to be used as a means of executing more constructive dialogue between airports and local residents, something which my London constituents will be very pleased about."@en1
