[F1 ATTACHMENT 6-H1 DECLARATION OF COMMITMENTS — EU AVIATION SECURITY VALIDATED ACC3 U.K.

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

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

[name of air carrier] can only be designated ‘ air cargo or mail carrier operating into the Union from a third country airport ’ (ACC3) once an EU aviation security validation report has been submitted to and accepted by the appropriate authority of a Member State of the European Union or Iceland, Norway or Switzerland for that purpose, and the details of the ACC3 have been entered in the Union database on supply chain security.

If a non-compliance in the security measures the report refers to is identified by the appropriate authority of an EU Member State or by the European Commission, this could lead to the withdrawal of [name of air carrier] designation as ACC3 already obtained for this airport which will prevent [name of air carrier] transport air cargo or mail into the EU or EEA area from this airport.

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

On behalf of [air carrier] I declare that:

(1)

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

(2)

I will provide the designating appropriate authority with the relevant details promptly but at least within 15 days if:

(a)

any changes to [name of air carrier] security programme occur;

(b)

the overall responsibility for security is assigned to anyone other than the person named in point 1.7 of Attachment 6-C3 to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1998;

(c)

there are any other changes to premises or procedures likely to significantly impact on security;

(d)

the air carrier ceases trading, no longer deals with air cargo or mail bound to the Union, or can no longer meet the requirements of the relevant Union legislation that have been validated in this report.

(3)

[name of air carrier] 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 ACC3 where security standards were identified as insufficient, until the subsequent validation of [name of air carrier] activities.

(4)

[name of air carrier] will inform the designating appropriate authority in case it is not able to request, obtain or ensure the application of appropriate security controls in respect of cargo or mail it accepts for carriage into the EU or EEA area, or it cannot exercise effective oversight on its supply chain.

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