The above report is SASIG’s response to the Airports Commission’s final report on their shortlisted options for a new runway.
SASIG continues to maintain it’s neutral position in terms of any particular option, other than to advocate that a proper balance is struck between securing economic benefits and addressing environmental impacts in arriving at a final decision.
SASIG has focused on drawing up a list of key provisions, which are set out in the body of the report, and asks Government that these are fully reflected in a National Policy Statement on aviation and any development approvals that are forthcoming in the development of a new runway.
