Zealand) and Other Matters Bill 2003

The bill proposes amendments to the Civil Aviation Act 1988 and has
associated legislation in New Zealand. The legislation aims to put in
place a statutory framework for the mutual recognition of aviation related
safety certificates. At this stage the proposal is for the mutual
recognition of Air Operator's Certificates in relation to large aircraft
(greater than 30 seats or 15,000 kgs).
