Recital 11
(11) The public financing of the national supervisory authorities should guarantee their independence, and should allow them to operate in accordance with the principles of fairness, transparency, non- discrimination and proportionality. Appropriate procedures for appointing competent staff should contribute to guaranteeing the independence of the national supervisory authorities, ensuring in particular that the appointment of persons in charge of strategic decisions is made by a public authority which does not directly exert ownership rights over air navigation service providers.

(19) The provision of en route air traffic services should be organisationally and functionally separated from the provision of CNS, AIS, ADS, MET and terminal air traffic services, including through the separation of accounts, in order to ensure transparency and avoid discrimination, cross- subsidisation and distortion of competition.

Recital 21
(21) The integration of unmanned aircraft operations must ensure a safe and shared use of the European airspace amongst unmanned and traditional operations. The traffic management of unmanned aircraft in an integrated manner requires the availability of common information services in order to create a common understanding of airspace activity in a given piece of airspace. In order to contain the costs of such traffic management, prices for common information services should be based on cost and a reasonable mark-up for profit, and should be subject to approval by national supervisory authorities. To enable the provision of the service, the required data should be made available by air navigation service providers.

Recital 25
Recital 25
(25) Given the cross border and network elements inherent in the provision of en route air navigation services and the fact that, as a consequence, performance is notably to be assessed against Union-wide performance targets, a Union body should be in charge of the assessment and approval of the performance plans and performance targets for en route air navigation services, subject to judicial review by an appeal body and eventually by the Court of Justice. In order to ensure that the tasks be carried out with a high level of expertise and necessary independence, that Union body should be the Agency acting as Performance Review Body (PRB), functioning in accordance with the dedicated governance rules set out in this Regulation (EU) 2018/1139. Given their knowledge of the local circumstances, necessary to assess terminal air navigation services, national supervisory authorities should be in charge of the assessment and approval of the performance plans and performance targets for terminal air navigation services. The allocation of costs between en route and terminal air navigation services constitutes a single operation, relevant to both types of services, and should therefore be subject to the oversight of the Agency acting as PRB.

Recital 25 a (new)
(25a) The European Union Aviation Safety Agency acting as Performance Review Body (hereafter the “Agency acting as PRB”) that should have a permanent structure, guaranteeing that the tasks conferred upon the Agency acting as PRB be carried out with the required expertise as well as independence from public or private interests and that can rely on dedicated resources; a Regulatory Board for Performance Review should be established and a Director for Performance Review should be appointed in order to carry out specifically the functions of the Agency acting as PRB; the Regulatory Board for Performance Review should act independently and should not seek or follow instructions or accept recommendations from a government of a Member State, from the Commission or any other public or private entity.

Recital 25 c (new)
Recital 25 c (new)
(25c) Where the Agency acting as PRB has decision-making powers, interested parties should, for reasons of procedural economy, be granted a right of appeal to an Appeal Board for Performance Review, which should be part of the Agency acting as PRB, but independent from its administrative and regulatory structure; cooperation between national supervisory authorities in the area of performance review is important to ensure smooth application of Union law in this area and should thus be facilitated, namely through the establishment of an Advisory Board for Performance Review
Amendment 71 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 25 d (new)
Recital 25 d (new)
(25d) Designated air traffic service providers hold natural monopolies in respect of the services concerned, and those services are remunerated by airspace users. Because of this specific feature, it is necessary that the performance and charging schemes be applied to them, so as to optimise the provision of the services concerned on a number of points. The principal role of the Agency acting as PRB consists of the application of those schemes, and the funds necessary for its setting up can therefore be considered as necessary for reasons linked to the peculiar features and the peculiar position of the providers of the services concerned
Amendment 72 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 25 e (new)
Recital 25 e (new)
(25e) Costs related to the supervision of designated air traffic service providers by the Agency acting as PRB should be divided into costs for its setting up and running costs; the costs for the setting up of the Agency acting as PRB are short- term and limited to a few activities, such as recruitment, training and necessary IT equipment, and are necessary to initiate the supervision required for the reasons described; those costs should be paid during five financial years by designated air traffic service providers in the form of annual contributions, calculated in a fair and non-discriminatory manner. Individual contributions by designated air traffic service providers should be determined by reference to their size in order to reflect their importance in the provision of air traffic services in Europe and hence the relative benefits they draw from the supervised activity. Concretely, such contributions should be calculated based on the amount of actual revenues produced by the provision of air navigation services over the reference period preceding the reference period during which this Regulation enters into force.
Amendment 73 #

Recital 25 f (new)
Recital 25 f (new)
(25f) In order to establish uniform rules regarding the calculation of annual contributions, in particular the methodology to allocate the estimated expenditure to categories of designated air traffic service providers and the criteria to determine the level of individual contributions based on size, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission; Running costs relate to the cost of the activities conducted by the Agency acting as PRB, in respect of the performance and charging schemes, once the operation of this activity has been set up. Running costs of the Agency acting as PRB should equally be financed by designated air traffic services providers. However, the funding should be based on fees and charges, on account of interventions necessary for the application of the performance and charging schemes. This form of funding can also be expected to enhance the autonomy and independence of the Agency acting as PRB.

(29) Mechanisms for modulation of charges to improve environmental performance and service quality, notably through increased use of sustainable alternative fuels, increased capacity and reduced such as reducing delays, while maintaining an optimum safety level, should be set up at Union-wide level given the cross-border nature of aviation. National supervisory authorities should also have the possibility to establish mechanisms at local level regarding terminal services.

(39a) In order to streamline the SESAR deployment phase, an enhanced coordination of standardisation activities should ensure the timely availability of standards required to deploy SESAR solutions. A reformed and integrated European Aviation Standards Coordination Group (EASCG) should contribute to a further customer-focused standardisation process, making sure the needs of operational stakeholders are appropriately prioritised.
