(Question No. 649)


Mr McClelland asked the Minister for Transport and Regional Development, upon notice, on 10 September 1996:

(1) What was the average delay experienced by aircraft (a) landing at and (b) taking off from Sydney (Kingsford-Smith) Airport for each hour of operation between the hours of 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. for each day of operation from 1 December 1995 to 9 September 1996.

(2) Which instances referred to in part (1) occurred when the East-West runway was operational.


Mr Sharp —The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

(1) and (2) Airservices Australia has advised that it is unable to provide the detailed statistics sought by the Member for Barton. Airservices Australia does not collect aircraft landing and take off delay data, but information on average delays may be available from individual airlines, subject to commercial considerations.
