Additional information submitted by Dublin Airport operator daa in relation to the plans, which also includes an application to raise the annual passenger limit to 40million passengers per annum, were deemed significant by the Planning Authority.
A decision on this planning application is not subject to the same timelines associated with a conventional planning application, as the Aircraft Noise Competent Authority (ANCA), in its role as the regulator of aircraft noise, formed the opinion on January 17, 2024, that the application requires an assessment of the need for a noise related action.

The outstanding information which was requested by ANCA in March 2024 for this assessment has yet to be submitted by daa. The Planning Authority is precluded from issuing a decision on the planning application until it receives direction from ANCA in relation to aircraft noise.
The application is being assessed by the Planning Authority in accordance with relevant national, regional and local planning policy, including the Fingal Development Plan and the Dublin Airport Local Area Plan.
