As more residents stayed home during the COVID-19 pandemic, noise levels went up (and people&#8217;s mental health suffered).<\/p>\n<p>For instance, in April 2022, a woman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/singapore\/housing\/woman-who-suffered-noise-from-upstairs-neighbour-for-three-years-lost-sleep-job\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lost sleep and her job<\/a> after having to bear with noise from her neighbours upstairs for three years.

The findings from both research and public engagements will then serve to guide the panel in finalising its recommendations in due time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Are you living next to a noisy neighbour?
