Section 19A(2) of the Act sets out the persons who may bring such appeals. These include an owner or manager of a prescribed aerodrome whose interests are materially affected by the decision.
“Prescribed aerodrome” is defined in section 19A(3) as an aerodrome of a description prescribed by regulations made by the Secretary of State. These Regulations prescribe a description of aerodromes for the purposes of section 19A(3).
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
