This Order makes provision necessary to comply with that much of EC Directive 91/670 on mutual acceptance of personnel licences for the exercise of functions in civil aviation as concerns the application of article 5 of that Directive in Northern Ireland.
The Order makes it unlawful for a national of a Member State other than the United Kingdom to be treated otherwise than on the same basis as United Kingdom nationals so far as concerns admission in Northern Ireland to public and private training establishments and to licensing examinations and procedures relating to civil aviation cockpit personnel. It confers a right on a person aggrieved to make a claim by action brought before a county court in Northern Ireland and enables compensation payable to include compensation for damage to feelings.
This Order extends to Northern Ireland only.
