Safety Oversight of ANSPs Background

ICAO Doc 9734 (Ed 2-2006) Safety Oversight Manual, Establishment of a State’s Safety Oversight System

1. What is Safety Oversight ?

2.1.1 Safety oversight is a function by which Contracting States ensure the effective implementation of:

ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs);

the critical elements of a safety oversight system; and

relevant safety practices and procedures.

It ensures national aviation industry provides a level of safety equal to or better than that defined by SARPs.



2.1.3 Safety oversight is

A State’s responsibility

A major obligation


2. Why Safety Oversight?

ICAO Doc 9734 (Ed 2-2006) Safety Oversight Manual, Establishment of a State’s Safety

Oversight System

2.1.1 Ensures the national aviation industry provides a safety level equal to or better than those

defined by the ICAO SARPs

2.1.3 Ensures continued safety and regularity of international air transport.

ICAO audit Protocol questions (Appendices)

ANS 7.031 Has the State established an organizational structure for the safety oversight of air navigation service providers? ANS 7.033 Has the State established and implemented a safety oversight system for ensuring the effective implementation of safety-related policy and procedures in the air navigation fields? ANS 7.037 Has the State developed procedures to assist ANS inspectorate staff in effectively carry out their safety oversight duties and responsibilities? ANS 7.041 Has the State ensured that sufficient legal authority has been delegated to the level of its ANS inspectorate staff to allow them to execute their mandate of regulatory oversight? [ All ] Is there a distinct separation between the regulatory and service provision functions? [ All ] Are all the functions and responsibilities of the inspectorate clearly defined?

Safety Oversight of ANSPs CE-3: Organisational arrangement/structure


2.4.9 “In those States where the State is both the regulatory authority and an ANSP, the requirements of the Convention will be met and public interest best be served by clear separation of authority and responsibility. The approval, certification and continued surveillance should be followed as though the operating agency were non-governmental entity.”

3.2.6 “ …A clear division of responsibilities shall be defined between the regulatory functions and service provision functions. Regulatory and safety functions shall remain the responsibility of the State…”

3.3.6.5 “ …It remains important that any such arrangement be clearly defined by legislation to ensure that adequate safety oversight authority remains vested in the CAA…”




ICAO ANS Audit Protocol Preamble

of Air Navigation Services.

Regulator – The entity responsible for a service to be provided and in accordance with

established standards.

Safety Oversight of ANSPs CE-1&2 Legislation and Regulations


2.2.3 States are required to integrate SARPS in national regulations and practices;

Timely implementation of national regulations and practices ultimately achieve safety and regularity

of aircraft operations worldwide.



3.2.1 CE-1 Primary Aviation Legislation: The provision of a comprehensive and effective aviation law

consistent with the environment of the State’s aviation activity and compliant with the requirements

contained in the Convention on International Civil Aviation.

CE-2 Specific Operating Regulations: The provision of adequate regulations to address, at a

minimum, national requirements emanating from the primary aviation legislation and providing

for standardized operational procedures, equipment and infrastructures (including safety management

and training systems), in conformance with the SARPs contained in the Annexes to the Convention on

International Civil Aviation.

Oversight System

3.3.2 Adapting or adopting regulations from other States

To meet their requirements for regulation, Contracting States always have the option of adopting or adapting

another Contracting State’s regulations

For the moment until EASA Implementing Rule is established for ANS, SRD will

ADAPT from various EC Regulations and Opinions


Model Adapted: European ANS Requirements
