Committee of Supply 2023 debate, Day 5: Yip Hon Weng on tackling neighbourhood noise
In efforts to address neighbourhood noise, how are extended quiet hours being enforced? Are condominium residents required to abide by them? If perpetrators continue to violate the guidelines, will legislation be moved to resolve the problem? Is technology being used to monitor and enforce the guidelines? How can the public be more involved in such efforts? For example, will a 2015 pilot programme where community wardens supported the police to respond to noise complaints be reintroduced? These were some questions put forward by MP Yip Hon Weng in Parliament on Thursday (Mar 2).
