Government Guidelines These guidelines are intended to assist those involved in establishing, running and participating in airport consultative committees. They supersede the guidance issued by the then Department of Transport in 1987-88. Aerodromes to which section 35 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 applies have a responsibility to provide facilities for consultation. Farnborough Aerodrome does not come under this legislation, however, this guidance is also  applicable to any aerodrome with a consultation process and others with an interest in consultative procedures. The guidelines recognise the differences in circumstance between individual aerodromes and that arrangements and procedures for one committee may not be appropriate for another. It is important that the aerodrome and the committee retain the flexibility to adapt to local circumstances.   The current legislation can be found at the Department for Transport The Aerodromes Designation (Facilities for Consultation) Order 1996 (SI 1996/1392) as amended (SI 2002/2421) is: http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2002/20022421.htm  The Order designating aerodromes under section 35 of the 1982 Act is the: http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/aviation/environmentalissues/guidelinesforairportconsulta2880  FARNBOROUGH AERODROME CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE An independent Consultative Committee established by TAG Farnborough in accordance with a Section 106 agreement of the Town and Country Planning Act THE COMMITTEE
