Dominica\u2019s Ambassador for CARICOM, Felix Gregoire, represented Dominica and the meeting was chaired by Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s Prime Minister, Gaston Browne.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The meeting was held following a decision by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the US, to downgrade the authority yet again because \u201cit does not comply with<a href=\"https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/exit\/?pageName=International%20Civil%20Aviation%20Organization%20%28ICAO%29&amp;pgLnk=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eicao%2Eint%2FPages%2Fdefault%2Easpx\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/exit\/?pageName%3DInternational%2520Civil%2520Aviation%2520Organization%2520%2528ICAO%2529%26pgLnk%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww%252Eicao%252Eint%252FPages%252Fdefault%252Easpx&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1589984130953000&amp;usg=AFQjCNH2uDCxcpSgtA3hlsgA8fa__k-stg\">\u00a0International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)<\/a>\u00a0safety standards\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The authority has, however, denied claims that its policies call into question the safety and security of the region\u2019s airports and airlines and said that the outstanding matters are regulatory issues which heads of government seemed keen on rectifying in the shortest time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the fourteen (14) key recommendations outlined by the FAA, the ECCAA said it had been able to quickly address and implement eleven (11) of the suggested adjustments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The authority said in a press statement that the remaining three (3) suggestions required legislative changes from each Member State and, although underway, were not yet completed at the time of this recent assessment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also noted that this change in\u00a0status will not affect the day-to-day running of regional airports and airlines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Meeting took several more decisions that addressed areas such as Sustainable Financing of the ECCAA, Resolution of Outstanding Regulatory Matters, Administrative and Operational Strengthening of the ECCAA and joint Strategic Diplomatic Outreach.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The amendment of legislation that empowers the ECCAA Director-General to develop, issue, and revise operating regulations were among the top recommendations made.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Meeting mandated that the OECS Commission serve as the implementing body on these matters to ensure that resolution is timely and Heads are continuously informed on the progress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Member States to the ECCAA have also agreed to settle all arrears to the institution and to keep payments current.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heads of Government considered the recommendation to adopt the payment model of Antigua and Barbuda by dedicating assignment of airport or other fees towards subvention payments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Authority has also agreed to the implementation of a diplomatic d\u00e9marche in Washington to ensure an ongoing dialogue with the FAA and to facilitate a deeper understanding of the nuances within the organisation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"OECS Heads of Government, including Dominica, have agreed on several decisions to reclassify the Eastern Caribbean Civil Aviation Authority (ECCAA) to its category 1 rating.
