Mr. Ottaway
asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he has any plans to amend the Noise Insulation Regulations 1975; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Peter Bottomley
Later this year we will be laying before the House a minor amendment to the Noise Insulation Regulations in the form of a revision of the 1975 edition of "Calculation of Road Traffic Noise". This technical memorandum is prescribed in regulation 6. It sets out the method and procedure for ascertaining noise levels for the purposes of the regulations.We are considering other possible amendments to the regulations.
