## Signature

Signed by authority of the Secretary of State for Transport
Caithness
Minister of State
Department of Transport
1st December 1993

## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Civil Aviation (Route Charges for Navigation Services) Regulations 1993 as follows:
New unit rates and transatlantic charges are introduced, reflecting forecasts of costs and traffic for 1994, and taking into account the balance of over and under recoveries of revenue as compared with costs experienced by the countries participating in the Eurocontrol charging system in 1992 (regulation 2(a)).
The unit rates in ECUs set out in regulation 2(a) and the amount of the charges in ECUs set out in regulation 2(b) (for transatlantic flights) are calculated by reference to the costs of provision of en–route navigation services in the participating countries in the Eurocontrol charges system, the amount of traffic using each country’s airspace and the relationship of each country’s currency to the ECU over a period agreed by Ministers of the participating countries. The interaction of these elements varies in each country. In calculating the revised charges the average of the exchange rates between the ECU and the currencies of the participating countries obtaining in the month of July 1993 have been used.
The unit rates for Belgium, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal and Turkey have decreased on average by 19.6%. The unit rates for Austria, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Spain and Switzerland have increased on average by 19.5% and for Portugal (Santa Maria) by 0.8% and Spain (Canaries) by 5 1%. The unit rate for the United Kingdom has decreased by 9.5%.
Bucharest, Johannesburg, Timisoara, Munich, Rome, Glasgow and Vienna are added to certain zones for the purposes of regulation 7 and Schedule 3 to the principal Regulations. The reference to Belgrade is deleted from Schedule 3 (regulation 2(b)).
