COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 18/2010

of 8 January 2010

amending Regulation (EC) No 300/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as far as specifications for national quality control programmes in the field of civil aviation security are concerned

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 300/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2008 on common rules in the field of civil aviation security and repealing Regulation (EC) No 2320/2002 (1), and in particular Article 11(2) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

The development and implementation of a national quality control programme by each Member State is essential to ensure the effectiveness of its national civil aviation security programme in accordance with Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 300/2008.

 

(2)

Specifications for the national quality control programme to be implemented by the Member States should ensure a harmonised approach in this respect.

 

(3)

To be effective, compliance monitoring activities to be undertaken under the responsibility of the appropriate authority should be carried out regularly. They should not be restricted as to the subject, stage or moment at which they are carried out. They should take the most suitable forms to ensure their effectiveness.

 

(4)

Priority should be given to the development of a common methodology for compliance monitoring activities.

 

(5)

It is necessary to develop a harmonised way of reporting on the measures taken to fulfil the obligations under this Regulation and on the aviation security situation in the territories of the Member States.

 

(6)

National quality control programmes should be based on best practices. Such best practices should be shared with the Commission and communicated to all Member States.

 

(7)

Regulation (EC) No 300/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.

 

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Civil Aviation Security,
