summary
The European Parliament adopted a resolution based on the report by Marieke SANDERS-TEN HOLTE (ELDR, NL) and made several amendments to the Council's common position. (Please see the summary dated 12/06/03). Parliament also stated that, as long as Member states have separate entities to provide air traffic services to civil and military air traffic, they must keep the Commission informed of the way in which cooperation between such entities is organised or to integrate such entities with each other. Finally, Member States must jointly designate air traffic service providers within one month of the establishment of the airspace block.�

summary
The Council made a number of modifications to the proposals of the Commission, both regarding form and substance. As far as the formal modifications are concerned, the Council endeavoured to make the texts simpler, clearer and generally easier to understand. The Council rearranged the texts considerably in order to enhance their logical disposition, and deleted a number of provisions with a view to avoiding duplication. With respect to the substantive modifications, the Council introduced certain modifications in order to take care of specific requests by Member States. Modifications were also made in view of requests by the military authorities of the Member States. In line with the amendments by Parliament, the Council reviewed the Regulation in order to give high priority to safety aspects. The Council excluded search and rescue services from the scope of the Regulation, since these are not part of air navigation services and in some Member States belong to the military. The Council specified the tasks of national supervisory authorities in respect of air navigation service providers, and agreed to simplify the rules for the delegation of tasks by such authorities to recognised organisations. The Council deleted the provision on licensing and training of controllers, since this provision has a declaratory nature and, as such, has no place in the Regulation. As regards the rules for the provision of services, the Council made the text clearer by establishing a separate provision on 'common requirements', and by replacing the system of authorisation of air navigation service providers by a system of certification of such service providers. The Council agreed to exempt from such system cases where the provider of air navigation services offers those services primarily to aircraft movements other than general air traffic. With regard to the designation of air traffic service providers, the Council affirmed that the Member States have discretionary powers in choosing a service provider, and agreed to extend this prerogative with respect to the designation of providers of meteorological services. The Council followed the Parliament's suggestion to ensure consistency of the charging scheme with Eurocontrol's multilateral agreement on route charges. With regard to the establishment of the cost-base for charges, the Council deleted the provisions on external costs. As far as 'incentive mechanisms' in the charging schemes are concerned, the Council agreed that the decision as to whether to apply such mechanisms remains within the sole responsibility of each Member State. The Council considers that the texts of its common position on the Single European Sky package are appropriate and balanced. With respect to the amendments submitted by the European Parliament in first reading, the Council observes that the large majority of these amendments are, as to their aim and spirit, very similar to the corresponding provisions of the Council's common position. Therefore, the Council holds the opinion that the texts of its common position ensure by and large that the aim sought by these amendments is achieved. Finally, the Council would like to underline that the agreement that it has reached in respect of civil-military cooperation, which in its present form is acceptable to all relevant partiesin the Member States, constitutes the fruit of much and hard work with respect to this very delicate issue. �

summary
The European Commission accepted some of the amendments made by the European Parliament. They include: - those amendments that clarify or improve the text by reinforcing reference to safety, qualification of recognised organisations, recruitment of controllers, international standards, co-operation between service providers, cooperation between civil and military authorities, use of data. - a clause calling for the Commission to take action to help solve the problem of lack of controllers; - a clause stating the prime responsibility of Member States with regard to the relations between civil and military authorities. The following are some of amendments accepted in principle but not as regards wording: - the duration of authorisations. The latter are not meant to be licences but rather certifications of suitability of service providers. The period of validity will be defined within he context of the definition of harmonised conditions; - making the proposed charging scheme fully dependent upon the route charging system laid down in the multilateral agreement of Eurocontrol. The proposed charging scheme would not only apply to route charges but also to terminal and approach charges (where Eurocontrol has no competence). Furthermore the Eurocontrol scheme leaves margins of interpretation and the Commission intends to come to harmonised and binding rules within the community. The amendment is accepted provided that it does not restrict the scope of Community action in this field. - the Commission will express the principle of consultation of industry in a recital, but will not accept the establishment of an industry advisory group having an institutional role; - the amendment specifying conditions for the exchange of operational data is accepted, but confidentiality conditions will be defined at a later stage. The Commission rejected the amendment on a strict separation between national supervisory authorities and air navigation service providers. It also rejected certain amendments affirming the principle of the integrity of air navigation services and the need to have them provided within a single organisation.�

summary
The European Parliament adopted a resolution based on the report by Marieke SANDERS-TEN HOLTE (ELDR, NL) on air navigation services. As well as the mutual recognition of licences of air traffic controllers, Parliament stated that there should be the development of recruitment programmes. The Commission should monitor the development of recruitment programmes by the Member States to determine if Community support were needed. Parliament went on to state that national supervisory authorities and the air navigation service providers should be separated from one another to the extent necessary to ensure that the national supervisory authorities operate as fully independent agencies in the discharge of their actions. On the question of charges, Parliament felt that the charging scheme must be consistent with the route charging system laid down in multilateral agreements and the Europol Convention.�

summary
PURPOSE : to present a proposal for a Regulation on the provision of Air Navigation Services in the Single European Sky. CONTENT : the objective of the proposal for a Regulation is to define a Community framework for the provision of air navigation services. While the Member States would remain responsible for the status of air navigation service providers, the proposed Regulation would impose the same obligations and offer the same opportunities to all service providers in order to create a genuinely frontier-free airspace within the EU. It consists of the application of three concepts: 1) a system of authorisation for the provision of air navigation services; 2) other services: meteorological services, search and rescue services and aeronautical services; 3) ancillary services: communication, navigation and surveillance services. To ensure that the services proposed meet the objectives concerning the performance, safety and uniformity of the European airspace as a whole, the Commission is proposing the introduction of a harmonised system of authorisations according to precise specifications. The Member State will be responsible for implementing the system and mutually recognise their authorisations. This would also facilitate cooperation between service providers. Whilst the development of regulatory activities will be at Community level, there should be an effective compliance review mechanism, in particular to supervise the activites of service providers. The legislative proposal leaves compliance review primarily to national authorities. To this end, Member States will have to designate supervisory authorities. However, the measures proposed also ensure that the Community has enforcement ability to deal with cases of European significance to supervise the conduct of compliance review and enforcement at national level. With regard to the provision of services, Member States would continue to be able to designate air traffic control service providers operating the subject to a monopoly on specific functional airspaces; the provision of ancillary services would be open to competition; the service providers would have to publish separate annual accounts for each type of service provided. The Commission proposes amendments, within the context of the common route charges system of Eurocontrol, to the structure of charges for use of airspace. This will add efficiency incentives for service providers and incentives to optimise the capacity of the sytem as a whole for providers and users. Morover, it is important to introduce incentives on investment and management. The incentives are defined in respect of helping supply meet demand through financial rewards and penalties. They shall be devised so as to be equitable between airspace users and service providers, in order to reach a better cooperation amongst them. With regard to financing the increase in air traffic control system capacity, part of the charges paid by the airlines could be used to finance improveents to the system. The Commission will explore this possibility by allocating part ofthese charges to actions to increase this possibility by allocating part of these charges to actions to increase air traffic control system capacity in order to implement projects of common interest between 2002 and 2005.�
