Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the Civil Aviation (Route Charges for Navigation Services) Regulations 1984 as follows:-

New rates and transatlantic tariffs are introduced reflecting forecasts of costs and traffic for 1989 and taking into account the balance of over and under recoveries of revenue as compared with costs experienced by the countries participating in the Eurocontrol charging system in 1987.

The unit rates in United States dollars set out in Schedule 1 and the amount of the charges in United States dollars set out in Schedule 2 are calculated by reference to the costs of provision of en route navigation services in the participating countries in the Eurocontrol charges system, the amount of the traffic using each country's airspace and the relationship of each country's currency to the United States dollar over a period agreed by Ministers of the participating countries. The inter-action of these elements varies in each country. In calculating the revised charges the average of the exchange rates between the United States dollar and the currencies of the participating countries obtaining in the month of July 1988 have been used. Greece which became a Member State of Eurocontrol in 1988 is included for the first time.

The unit rate in United States dollars for Austria, Belgium, France, the Republic of Ireland, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal (Mainland) and Switzerland has decreased by an average of 9.4 per cent. The unit rate in United States dollars for the Federal Republic of Germany and Spain (Mainland) has increased by an average of 9.2 per cent and for Portugal (Santa Maria) and Spain (Canaries) by an average of 16.3 per cent.

The unit rate in United States dollars for the United Kingdom has decreased by 0.2 per cent.
