Good evening, everyone. Welcome to meeting 42 of the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are studying the consequences of noise caused by airport operations in urban areas.
Joining us tonight from the Department of Transport is Mr. Martin Eley, director general of civil aviation.
At our last meeting we got to the end of the presentations, but we didn't get to questions. I apologize to the committee for being late. Circumstances prolonged the meeting I was in. But we're here, and we're going to open with questions.
I'll go to Ms. Jennings.
