He was alsoconscious of white paper implementation and of having too manycommittees. By combining committees such as the noise committeewith the Community Aviation Consultative Group (CACG), he wasconcerned that there may cause a loss of focus. Mr Geatchesstated that WAC had decided not to have separate planning forumand Perth Airport Board committee will pick that up. White paperappears to intend that the CACG has a broader level of communityengagement and consultation. If the CACG joined the NoiseCommittee, there may be a dilution of focus on noise or noise woulddominate other subject matters, hence the desire to separate it fromthe other committees.How does it work feeding through PAMG?Mr Geatches circulated an amendment to the flowchart distributed atthe PAMG meeting of the 15 July 2010 as it had not been clearPerth Airports Municipalities Group IncMinutes - OGM 18/11/10Page 4 of9
