68 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for Public Enterprise if any additional restrictions on aircraft noise, heights, and permitted engine operation apply in Heathrow Airport compared to Dublin Airport. [15674/00]
I draw the Deputy's attention to my response to his question on 23 May 2000.
The position is that the Irish Aviation Authority has promulgated standard instrument departure procedures for aircraft departing Irish airports. These procedures include noise abatement procedures and comply with the standards laid down by the International Civil Aviation Authorities.
