Oh dear. What are the members of the AWP going to do to fill the hours? Their Terms of Reference have been “amended”, removing the interesting and useful bits. I guess they’ll just have to make the most of their invaluable research trips around the country to find out what happens at other regional airports. Rather than just phoning them.
- Deleted: Consideration of the airport’s proposed night flying policy including establishment of parameters for community consultation and assessment of technical criteria against which the policy can be judged.
- Deleted: Work towards the preparation of a supplementary planning document relating to the development of the airport to provide a policy basis for the Council to steer airport growth in a manner that is environmentally acceptable.
- Deleted: Research and make recommendations on future public engagement.
- Deleted: Review the results of public engagement and report to the Panel for decision.
So no mention of an EIA then?
So in essence the AWP are working to errrr….predetermination?
