The objectives of this Agreement are:
to establish the main elements for enhanced cooperation between the Parties in order to contribute to timely and consistent implementation of the SES within the EU, and beyond the EU in those States that agree to be bound by the SES, and the establishment of an efficient air transport system through activities reflecting the respective tasks and responsibilities of the Parties;
to facilitate the necessary civil-military cooperation on ATM in the SES;
the recognition and utilisation of EUROCONTROL expertise including civil-military cooperation to support the EU in the implementation of SES and other related policies in particular in the fields of environment, including climate change, and research and development, in order to improve the performance of the European ATM network;
to acknowledge the value of EUROCONTROL continuing to perform, as appropriate, support activities and functions for the implementation of the SES;
to establish the necessary cooperation to support and facilitate the involvement of non-EU Member States in the SES, with a view to extending the implementation of the SES beyond the EU and to progressively achieving the application of the SES legislative framework by EUROCONTROL’s entire membership;
to ensure synergies and avoid duplication of EASA’s work in safety-related ATM matters and environmental issues, including, where appropriate, through the development of robust cooperation mechanisms between EASA and EUROCONTROL, taking into account EUROCONTROL’s pan-European responsibilities.
