Following up on a previous demand from the City of Edinburgh Council, which brought the reduction of Tattoo Flypasts from seven in August 2023 to five this year, the following Question was submitted to the Full Council meeting on 27th June 2024:
“Noting the recent decision of the Culture and Communities to express, on environmental and welfare grounds, regret at military jet flypasts during the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo, what routes the Council can take to reduce or end the use of these flypasts?”
