(2) In order to facilitate this progress and provide momentum for the shared commitment of ICAO Member States to address emissions from aviation at a global level, it is desirable to defer enforcement of requirements relating to flights to and from aerodromes outside of the Union and areas with close economic connections to the Union and a shared commitment to tackle climate change arising prior to the 2013 ICAO Assemblyoutside of EFTA States which incorporated Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community in their legislation. Action should therefore not be taken against aircraft operators in respect of requirements resulting from Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community arising before 1 JanuarMay 2014 for reporting verified emissions and for the corresponding surrender of allowances from incoming and outgoing flights to and from such aerodromes.
