VIEWPOINT
ATM/ANS tasks. This means that in the
future the existing European ATCO Directive
will be replaced by common
rules and acceptable means of compliance.
Such rules will naturally be
fully based on existing material and be
complemented only where necessary
for safety reasons. Common safety rules
must also ensure that all the necessary
safety requirements for other ATM professions
are covered.
The new SES package also plays the role
of safety adviser to EASA. This means
for instance that when implementing
SES regulations in the field of air space
management, the Member States and
the European Commission will consult
with EASA in order to ensure that all
safety aspects are properly addressed.
Avoidingoveregulation
One of the rationales for a single European
safety regulator is increased
effectiveness through simplification of
rules and streamlined procedures. The
Agency acts upon the maxim that new
rules should not disrupt or create difficulty
for the existing system. EASA’s new
competences will create no overlaps in
the regulatory system and no extra layer
for the industry. Finally, it is also our
goal to be a “light regulator” when and
where possible, to avoid overregulation
and undue burden on regulated persons,
by making use of what is already
in place. When transposing existing
rules, the Agency will also make sure it
adapts them to the needs of mediumand
small-sized organisations.
Consultation
As a safety regulator, it is our job to assist
the political decision-makers by providing
them with the necessary elements
to make the most appropriate choices.
When EASA develops various types of
rules, it is obliged to follow an open
and transparent process allowing
the involvement without discrimination
of all stakeholders. Recently the
Agency has reviewed its rule-making
process and we have built in more
moments of discussion and reflection
with our stakeholders before we publish
our “notice of proposed amendment”
(NPA). This allows us to reach
a consensus on a preferred solution
in a reasonable period of time for an
efficient decision-making process.
Conclusion
Aiming for global harmonisation and
in line with the requirements of the
common law, EASA rules will be compatible
with the related ICAO SARPs.
Aviation is global in nature and therefore
needs global rules. However,
such rules can also be developed and
harmonised at regional level, thereby
avoiding discretionary transposition
by each and every one of the 31 EASA
Member States.
EASA is also ready to do its utmost
to progressively convince the international
aviation community of the
merits of the European approach
to safety regulation. If they wish,
non-EU countries can be associated
to the EU system through bilateral
agreements under which they are
assimilated to Member States. This
is already the case for Norway, Iceland,
Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
The Agency is also signing working
arrangements with neighbouring
States and by doing so we are introducing
the pan-European approach
to all the domains where EASA has
competence. n

VIEWPOINT
When the legendary Liverpool manager,
Bill Shankly, was asked if football
was a matter of life and death, he replied
‘I assure you, it’s much more serious
than that’.
For the airlines which have to navigate
Europe’s antiquated airway network,
the Single European Sky falls into the
same category. It cannot have escaped
notice that 2009 is becoming an annus
horribilis for the industry. The
magnitude of passenger traffic losses
has only ever been seen once before,
in the aftermath of 9/11, and the revenue
situation is even worse, as highyielding
business markets have been
particularly hard hit. As if that were not
