Why NAPD not allowed at pilot discretion?

Hello everyone,

Just out of curiosity, in our company FOM, it's written:" Noise abatement procedures shall not be implemented except where a need for such procedures has been determined. ( See ICAO Annex 16, Volume I, Part V.)"

I did not know that until recently and I don't really understand why couldn't we. Lots of folks like to insert a NADP1 especially in China where it's usually high workload shortly after airborne in some airports.

Thank you.
