Fareham Borough Council hosts the Solent Airport Daedalus Consultative Committee. The committee’s purpose is to foster open and effective communication – and build understanding between Solent Airport Daedalus and its users, local residents and the business community about airport operations.
This Committee has no decision-making powers but it is a forum to:
- Exchange information and ideas
- Consider and comment upon the airport’s administration, operation and development, including:
- Existing and proposed facilities at the airport
- Surface access issues associated with the airport
- The environmental impacts of the airport, including noise
- The role of the airport in the local and regional economy, including as a local employer
- Maintain an overview of trends, performance, perceptions, complaints and potential challenges
- Make recommendations to the airport management, and other bodies where appropriate
Members of the Committee
The Consultative Committee comprises members who represent the interests of the local community and local businesses, aerodrome users and the three local authorities that the airport is located in.
The Committee is chaired by Councillor Seán Woodward, the Executive Leader of Fareham Borough Council.
