Centralised infrastructuresU.K.
14.—(1) On an application from the managing body of an airport, the CAA may determine to reserve for that managing body or for another person the management of the centralised infrastructures used for the supply of groundhandling services whose complexity, cost or environmental impact does not allow of division or duplication, such as baggage sorting, de-icing, water purification and fuel-distribution systems.
(2) Where the management of a centralised infrastructure has been reserved by the CAA pursuant to paragraph (1) above, a supplier of groundhandling services or a self-handling airport user at that airport shall not use any apparatus, equipment, system or other thing for the supply of the groundhandling services concerned as an alternative to that centralised infrastructure.
(3) The person for whom the management of a centralised infrastructure has been reserved pursuant to paragraph (1) above shall ensure that the management of that infrastructure is transparent, objective and non-discriminatory and, in particular, that it does not hinder the access of suppliers of groundhandling services or self-handling airport users within the limits provided for in these Regulations.
[F1(4) On its own proposal or on an application made to it by–
(a)the managing body of the airport concerned,
(b)the person for whom has been reserved the management of the centralised infrastructures in question, where that person is not the managing body of the airport concerned,
(c)a supplier of groundhandling services, or
(d)an airport user,
the CAA may vary from time to time or revoke a determination made pursuant to paragraph (1) above.
(5) Where an application is made pursuant to paragraph (1) above or where an application or proposal is made pursuant to paragraph (4) above, the provisions of Schedule 1 to these Regulations, in so far as they relate to such applications, or, as the case may be, proposals, shall apply.]
