About this inquiry

The Bill amends the Sydney Airport Demand Management Act 1997 which regulates the allocation and use of slots for aircraft to take off and land at Sydney Airport. The bill intends to increase efficiency of aircraft movements within the current movement caps. The bill also seeks to address anti-competitive behaviour by producing a stricter compliance regime around the slot allocation to reduce the potential for slot-hoarding and slot-misuse.
