HC Deb 15 May 1981 vol 4 cc377-8W
Mr. Sheerman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will consider further legislation on noise control following the recent report of the Environmental Health Association; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Giles Shaw

Noise from different sources is already widely controlled by existing legislation. The Government remain committed to containing and reducing noise nuisance wherever possible and new codes of practice covering several nuisances will be issued shortly.
