Examination of Witnesses (Questions 7220
- 7226)
7220. The local authorities were advocating
a minus 5 dB design criterion. If BS4142 is not to be used, what
can that minus 5 dB design criterion be based upon?
(Mr Thornely-Taylor) It has no meaning whatever
outside the definitions of BS4142.
7221. Mr Taylor: Thank you very much.
7222. Chairman: Thank you very much.
We will resume tomorrow at 10 am and hear the second witness.
7223. Mr Straker: It might be useful
if I mention, so far as timing for tomorrow is concerned, that
I would not expect the second tranche of my case to take anything
like the time that the noise aspect has taken.
7224. Chairman: That is good.
7225. Mr Straker: The third tranche of
my case will not take even that smaller amount of time; because
I am not calling any evidence in relation to it, I am simply making
certain observations to you in submissions apropos the enforceability
of the undertaking that has been given.
7226. Chairman: It will help members
of the Committee to meet with staff and to review the work that
it has been doing over the last few days. Thank you.
