Core to these recommendations is the uni-
form and consistent application of ICAO 
provisions at those aerodromes that come 
under the auspices of ICAO - these will 
apply in all cases except where a State has 
provided notification by the appropriate 
procedure. The National Aviation Safety 
Authority will decide upon the strategy for 
implementation at applicable aerodromes 
within its own state. The recommendations 
are mainly generic and it will be for the 
responsible organisations to decide specif-
ic details, after taking local conditions into 
account e.g. aerodromes where joint civil-
ian and military operations take place. 
Local arrangements may vary as decisions 
on the applicability of the Action Plan 
should be taken at national level.
