GOVERNMENT NOISE POLICY STATEMENT

That this House regrets that the Noise Policy Statement published by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on 15 March 2010 falls far short of what had been expected and what is required to tackle the increasing levels of noise in society and the range of problems associated with noise, including quality of life and health issues for the people of this country; agrees with the views of the UK Noise Association that the Policy Statement gives no specific proposals to tackle noise with the Noise Action Plans and the Noise Policy Statement for England doing little in themselves to reduce noise; notes that it is nearly a decade since the Government first promised a noise strategy; and calls on all hon. and right hon. Members to unite in campaigning for policies which will produce a meaningful outcome in eliminating unnecessary noise in daily life.
