ANNEX U.K. List of persons and entities visited and interviewed

ATTACHMENT 6-H3 U.K.

DECLARATION OF COMMITMENTS — THIRD COUNTRY EU AVIATION SECURITY VALIDATED KNOWN CONSIGNOR (KC3) U.K.

On behalf of [name of KC3] I take note of the following:

• This report establishes the level of security applied to EU/EEA bound air cargo operations in respect of the security standards listed in the checklist or referred to therein.

• [Name of KC3] can only be designated ‘third country EU aviation security validated known consignor’ (KC3) once an EU aviation security validation has been successfully completed with a ‘PASS’ by an EU aviation security validator listed in the Union database on supply chain security.

• If the report establishes a non-compliance in the security measures it refers to, this could lead to the withdrawal of [name of KC3] designation as a KC3 already obtained for this premise which will prevent [name of KC3] from delivering secured air cargo or mail for EU/EEA destination to an ACC3 or a third country EU aviation security validated regulated agent (RA3).

• The report is valid for five years and shall therefore expire on … at the latest.

On behalf of [name of KC3] I declare that:

(a)

[name of KC3] will accept appropriate follow-up action for the purpose of monitoring the standards confirmed by the report.

(b)

Any changes to [name of KC3] operations not requiring full re-validation will be noted on the original report by adding the information while keeping the previous information visible. This may concern the following changes:

(1)

the overall responsibility for security is assigned to anyone other than the person named in point 1.9 of Attachment 6-C4 to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1998;

(2)

any other changes to premises or procedures likely to significantly impact on security.

(c)

[name of KC3] will inform the ACC3 and the RA3's to which it delivers secured air cargo and/or air mail if [name of KC3] ceases trading, no longer deals with air cargo/air mail or can no longer meet the requirements validated in this report.

(d)

[name of KC3] will maintain the security level confirmed in this report as compliant with the objective set out in the checklist and, where appropriate, implement and apply any additional security measures required to be designated KC3 where security standards were identified as insufficient, until the subsequent validation of [name of KC3] activities.

On behalf of [name of KC3] I accept full responsibility for this declaration.
