The legal status of the Permanent Commission for the investigation of aviation accidents and incidents is being determined, APA reports.
This is reflected in the proposed amendment to the law "On Aviation" discussed at today's meeting of the Milli Majlis (Azerbaijani Parliament) Committee on Economic Policy, Industries and Enterprising.
Thus, according to the requirements of Appendix 13 to the Convention "On International Civil Aviation" dated December 7, 1944, to which the Republic of Azerbaijan is a party, member states of the International Civil Aviation Organization must establish an independent body from the civil aviation body and other bodies that may interfere with its activities to investigate aviation accidents and incidents. The relevant body must be established in a fully independent form.
Accordingly, it is proposed to add a new definition to the law to determine the legal status of the permanent commission for investigating aviation accidents and incidents.
