summary
The Common Position follows the the Commission proposal in its two main elements: a) a "non-addition" rule, aimed at prohibiting Member States from adding acoustically modified older aeroplanes to their registers as from 1st April 1999; b) a "non-operation" rule as from 1st April 2002, aimed at stopping the operation, in the territory of the Community, of non-complying aeroplanes registered in third countries. In order to ensure a non-discriminatory treatment of all aeroplanes irrespective of their country of registration, the Common Position also contains a third element concerning the aeroplanes registered in Member States, i.e: c) a "non-operation" rule as from 1st April 2002, aimed at stopping the operation, in the territory of the Community, of non-complying aeroplanes registered in Member States. Exemptions of a temporary and exceptional nature may be granted by Member States. In view of their geographical location, the airports in the French overseas departments are not covered by the Regulation. The application of the Regulation to the airport of Gibraltar is suspended pending bilateral agreement between the Member States concerned about the use of this airport. It should be noted that the Common Position included the European Parliament's amendment, transforming the Directive into a Regulation. Similarly, amendments concerning new recitals expressing the need to monitor the development of the aircraft noise situation and, if necessary propose new measures, as well as the need to prohibit the abuse of exemptions, were incorporated as Commission and Council statements to be included in the minutes of the Council at which the Regulation is adopted.�

summary
The Commission's amended proposal incorporates the European Parliament's amendment, transforming the Directive into a Regulation. It also partially includes those amendments covering the following areas: - requesting that, bearing in mind ICAO-activities, the Commission should submit further measures concerning new and more stringent noise emission standards for civil subsonic jet aeroplanes, in order to prevent any distortion of competition; - underlining the need for the Commission to observe closely the trend in the number of registered "hushkitted" Chapter 2 aeroplanes by 1st April 1999; - stressing the necessity to prohibit abuse of exemptions.�

T4-0490/1998
summary
Adopting the report by Mr Jose VALVERDE LOPEZ (PPE, E), the European Parliament considered that the directive could not be considered as the culmination of noise reduction pollution policies in the air transport sector. It called for the directive to be transformed into a regulation in order to facilitate and speed up the entry into force of the prescribed legal provisions. The European Parliament called for Member States to be entitled to regulate that, from 1 January 2000, civil subsonic jet aeroplanes classified as chapter 3 aeroplanes are not operated at airports in their territory between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. if the difference between the sum of the certified noise value and the sum of the chapter 3 noise limit values is 5 EPNdB or less. Parliament also called for: - the Commission to submit a proposal for a directive setting out new and more stringent noise emission standards for all aeroplanes by 31 December 2001; - close observation of the trend in registered "hushkitted" chapter 2 aeroplanes; - exemptions within the context of humanitarian aid measures to be the exception rather than the rule in order to avoid excessive noise pollution.�

COM(1998)0098
summary
OBJECTIVE: to prevent a further deterioration of the situation as regards noise from civil subsonic jet aeroplanes whose certificate has been renewed, and other environmentally damaging impacts. SUBSTANCE: the proposal provides for Member States to ensure that, as from 01/04/1999, civil subsonic jet aircraft whose certificate has been renewed cannot be registered in their territory. It also seeks to avoid discrimination between aeroplanes registered in the Community and those registered in third countries by limiting the operation at Community airports of aircraft which do not comply with the Directive. A limited number of exemptions are provided for. Some of these concern aeroplanes operated exclusively outside the Community, while some concern exceptional cases of a temporary nature. Member States should ensure the proper implementation of the common rules. �
