My email to Carl Sargeant AM

Hi Carl

Hope you are well.

I recently tried to get FCC to measure road noise outside my house

Their "get out" excuse was that it was outside their legal remit.

Under Welsh Statutory Instrument 2006 No. 2629 (W.225) The Environmental Noise (Wales) Regulations 2006

Are FCC not legally bound to make noise maps for Penymynydd, Penyffordd and Chester Rd as they have major roads very close and the major developments of A494 and Warren Hall Exit A55 which will affect the above areas adversely with regards noise pollution?

regards Colin

ps the above seems to apply to Aston Hill and the A494's
