it has been tasked with additional responsibilities, from
route-planning to collecting charges and providing its
own air navigation services.
Attracting new members
EUROCONTROL’s primary objective, today, is to develop
a seamless, pan-European air traffic management system
leading up to, and beyond, the full implementation
of the Single European Sky. To do this, it is vital that that
EUROCONTROL attracts membership from all of the 42
ECAC States, and since 1990, the Agency has expanded
from 11 to 37 Member States with the accession of
Armenia in March and Lithuania in September 2006.
This continuous expansion helps to improve the performance
of the network by stimulating international cooperative
agreements amongst Member States and their
neighbours, which themselves lead to enhanced integration
and collaboration across the whole region. With only
five ECAC Member States left to join EUROCONTROL,
the Agency is holding talks in an effort to encourage them
to join by the end of 2007.
Ratification of the revised
Convention
EUROCONTROL is governed by an international treaty,
the current version of which is in the process of ratification
and is known as the revised Convention. Signed in
1997, the revised Convention will come fully into force
after ratification by all its Contracting Parties. To date,
three States still have to ratify the revised Convention.
However, some of its features are already being applied
under a scheme known as the ‘early implementation of
the revised Convention’. This has been done to allow
the Agency to speed up improvements to safety and efficiency
in the ATM network and the cost-efficiency of the
Organisation.

assess the operational concept under development.
EUROCONTROL contributed to the identification and
development of the PATIN air transportation baseline
and protection concept, including the net-centric
security incident information exchange.
Airspace Security Action
Plan approved
The NATO EUROCONTROL ATM Security Coordination
Group (NEASCOG) has recently approved the Airspace
Security Action Plan. This plan is aimed at developing
a comprehensive set of best practices to enhance the
security of European airspace. The action plan covers
threat assessment, early threat detection of possible
suspicious flights, air security incident management,
and additional measures (awareness, assessment,
monitoring, training and exercises).
An ad-hoc drafting group involving Member States and
organisations was created under the umbrella of existing
NATO/EUROCONTROL working arrangements in
order to develop the guidelines. The group’s first report
has already been sent to the national decision-makers
for their assessment and work is continuing on the basis
of feedback received.
Security alerts
A number of security alerts caused disruption at
European airports during the summer of 2007.
These involved the introduction of exceptional security
measures in respect of passenger and baggage checks.
As usual in these situations, the main actors are fully
focused on dealing with the immediate impact on their
own operations and as such are not able to communicate
effectively with all ATM actors. This is where the
CFMU, via its extensive communication network, could
play a key role in disseminating information and the
appropriate operational decisions, not only on a pan-
European basis but also with the North American ATM
agencies.
New contingency planning
guidelines released
In October 2007, EUROCONTROL released new contingency
planning guidelines for air navigation service
provision, together with an accompanying ‘Reference
Guide’. The purpose of the guidelines’ is to provide a
framework to help States and their ANSPs fulfil their
obligation of having contingency plans in place not
only to satisfy local and national requirements, but also
to serve the wider interests of regional and overall pan-
European networks.
The guidelines describe the roles and responsibilities of
the various bodies, including the State, ANSPs and airspace
users, and set out the essential consultations that
need to take place within the planning process. As such,
they provide a check-list of all elements to be taken into
consideration when addressing the issue of contingency,
whilst leaving the exact content of the measures to
the discretion of the individual State organisations.
The Reference Guide is aimed at those institutions
which are more familiar with ATM contingency and who
