No common safety rules on European level, no Community competence

ICAO Contracting States committed to provide aerodromes in accordance with SARP’s of Annex 14 (+ Certification Manual);

But, different legal transpositions and implementation in Member States;No common transposition dates;Insufficient details on regulation of safety oversight;No uniform safety levels across EU Member States

High Level Groups

The EASA Management Board asked EASA to perform its rulemaking activities for the 1st and 2nd extension of remits under consideration of the following principles:

• prioritisation and phased approach • alignment with existing rules • simplicity of rules and • balance between “hard” and “soft”

Page 43: The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) · PDF fileThe regulatory framework: present regulations structure EASA Basic Regulation(EC) No 216/2008: adopted by the European Parliament

43

High Level GroupsEASA created 3 High level Groups with representatives from:• ATM/ANS• Airports• Airlines

The High Level Groups shall provide their input and closely follow all developments in the rulemaking process.

Kick-off meetings were held in September/October 2009.

The groups will meet on a regular basis
