An aeroplane operator must submit to the Regulator a copy of its verified Emissions Report for approval by the Regulator and a copy of the associated Verification Report in accordance with the timeline set out in Schedule 1.

2

The Regulator must decide on the level of aggregation, being State pair or aerodrome pair, for which an aeroplane operator must report the number of international flights in accordance with Field 7 in Table 1 in Schedule 5, and CO2 emissions in accordance with Field 8 in that Table. F1The Regulator must notify the aeroplane operator of its decision and inform the aeroplane operator whether Fields 7 and 8 in the Emissions Report must be reported at the level of State pair or aerodrome pair during the approval process for its Emissions Monitoring Plan.

In specific circumstances where an aeroplane operator operates a very limited number of flights between State pairs, it may submit a written request to the Regulator that such data not be published at the aeroplane operator level, as set out in Tables 4 and 5 of Schedule 5, explaining the reasons why disclosure would harm its commercial interests.

6

Based on this request, the Regulator must determine whether this data is confidential F2and notify the requester.

7

In specific circumstances where aggregated State pair data may be attributed to an identified aeroplane operator as a result of a very limited number of aeroplane operators conducting flights on a State pair, that aeroplane operator may request in writing to the Regulator that such data not be published at State pair level, explaining the reasons why disclosure would harm their commercial interests F3and notify the requester.
