Aviation safety with regard to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the Union

The Committee on Transport and Tourism adopted the report by Kosma ZŁOTOWSKI (ECR, PL) on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on certain aspects of aviation safety with regard to the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the Union.

The proposal aims to put in place a mechanism to temporarily extend (for 9 months) the validity of certain aviation safety certificates in the absence of an agreement to withdraw the United Kingdom from the Union.

The committee recommended that the European Parliament's position adopted at first reading under the ordinary legislative procedure should amend the Commission's proposal as follows.

Members specified that the rules and obligations concerning certificates governed by the Regulation under discussion shall apply to both holders and issuers of certificates.
