Greg will be chairing a public meeting with the team leading Gatwick's independent review on Saturday 28 November at 10am in the Trinity Theatre, Tunbridge Wells.

Greg said:

"Aircraft noise is of great concern to many local residents so I wanted to give them the chance to speak directly to Bo Redeborn who is leading Gatwick's Independent Review. I am delighted that he has agreed to come and listen to people's views."

Booking for this event is essential as seats are limited.

Gatwick has outlined the aims of its independent review as being to ensure that:

  • Everything that can reasonably be done to alleviate the problems identified is being done, whether this involves action by the airport or by the other parties most closely involved – National Air Traffic Service (NATS), Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the Department for Transport or the airlines
  • The approaches which Gatwick has adopted for providing information to the local community and for handling complaints are fully adequate for the task

    Intrusive levels of aircraft noise affects many of my constituents, especially those living towards the west of Tunbridge Wells. I have been working alongside community groups and local experts to press for Gatwick, the airlines and the regulators, to change flightpaths and operate quieter aircraft.

Southborough Hub and Medical Centre

Following concerns that the proposed Southborough Hub was in jeopardy Greg convened an urgent meeting yesterday of members and officers from the three local authorities involved in the project in a bid to break the deadlock.
