The past 12 months have been in large part about helping Airservices Australia (Airservices) to bed in new processes and I am pleased this has led to real progress in pursuing some of the noise improvement opportunities raised by this office. Airservices has finalised all but three of our review recommendations and there were no new major reviews completed in the period.
The Aircraft Noise Ombudsman acknowledges Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past and present.
