In conclusion, the proposed amendments continue the Government of Canada's move to a liberalized and open air transportation system in Canada, one which balances the need to update statutory and regulatory instruments to protect and to respond to changes in the air industry marketplace with a responsibility to ensure that consumers are protected in a manner that is consistent with a fully deregulated market.

- CONGESTION AND CRISIS IN AIR TRAFFIC IN EUROPE - COUNCIL RESOLUTION "THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Considering that air traffic management is of vital importance for the development of European air transport; Considering that air transport has a key role to play in economic development and strengthening social cohesion, providing swift and efficient links between regions and in particular in making peripheral and island regions accessible; Considering that air traffic congestion imposes serious losses and inconvenience both for airlines and creates economic obstacles for air traffic within the European Union, while causing inconvenience for users in general; Considering that such congestion is aggravated seasonally and for given t ...[+++]raffic flows and that saturation of the air space and reduction of available capacity are two of the primary causes of this congestion; Considering that an unexpected or unplanned loss of civil air traffic control capacity over an extended period can lead to a crisis; Considering that better utilization of available capacity could reduce congestion and prove useful in cutting costs; Considering that the Council, in its Resolution 89/C189/02 of 18 July 1989 and in its conclusions of 29 March 1990 and 7 December 1992, addressed air traffic system capacity problems, calling for an effort to make progress towards their possible solution; Considering that Directive 93/65 of 19 July 1993 dealt with the definition and utilization of compatible technical specifications for the procurement of air-traffic-management equipment and systems; Considering the communication from the Commission on congestion and crisis in air traffic presented to the Council on 4 September 1995; Considering the vital role in air traffic management and organization played by such international organizations as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the European Civil Aviation Commission (ECAC) and the European Organization for the Safety of Air ...

Among the items to be covered both at the Community level were : - a detailed assessment of the existing air traffic control system and its future needs; - recruitment of additional personnel; - redefinition of tasks for air traffic controllers; - much equipment is outmoded and cannot communicate with neighbouring control systems; - making a limited use of military airspace by civilian air transport; - further research into advanced telecommunications technologies fully adapted to specific European needs.

The Commission has already asked for a study on the work of air traffic controllers and sees scope for further technical harmonisation on area navigation as an alternative to fixed air corridors, to a Conflict Alert System for air traffic control centres, for automatic communication between ATC centres when responsibility is transferred from one to another, for automated altitude transponders in aircraft and for automated landing systems at airports.
