I can advise the deputy that Government has put in place a framework for managing noise at Dublin Airport underpinned by the Aircraft Noise (Dublin Airport) Regulation Act 2019.   The Aircraft Noise Competent Authority (ANCA) established under the Act monitors, and regulates where necessary, for the management of aircraft noise in the communities around Dublin Airport.

As this is a matter for the noise regulator, I have forwarded your question to ANCA for direct reply.  Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
