<p>No such specific assessment has been made. The Government keeps under review all
research carried out on the impacts of aircraft noise on health and sleep disturbance,
including any effects on productivity, and would take this into account when considering
the costs and benefits of any relevant policy or regulatory proposals.</p><p> </p><p>As
part of the last review of night flying restrictions at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted
Airports, my Department commissioned the Civil Aviation Authority to undertake a review
of literature on these impacts. The CAA published this review in January 2013 (Report
ERCD 1208 on Aircraft Noise, Sleep Disturbance and Health Effects) and updated it
in June 2014 (Report CAP 1164).</p><p> </p><p> </p>
