  "text": "The Union and its Member States are a strong supporter of ICAO's efforts to put a global market-based measure for international aviation globally into effect to contribute to tackling climate change.\n(insert your State) fully supports the efforts undertaken within ICAO in order to make CORSIA operational as soon as possible. In accordance with Directive 2003/87/EC, Europe is in the process of translating CORSIA Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) requirements into Union legal acts with expected entry into force by January 2019. The time limit within which possible differences have to be notified according to ICAO State Letter AN 1/17.14 – 18/78 is too short for any adaptations of the Union law to be adopted by the Union within that limit.\nAt this stage, certain differences exist between Directive 2003/87/EC and detailed rules adopted by the Commission, on the one hand, and CORSIA on the other hand. This applies both to MRV requirements and to offsetting requirements.\nIn respect of both, the scope of application of Directive 2003/87/EC as it currently stands shall be recalled. The Directive applies irrespective of the nationality of the aeroplane operator and in principle covers flights which depart from or arrive in an aerodrome situated in the territory of a Member State to which the Treaty applies. Directive 2003/87/EC applies without distinction to flights within and between Member States and/or EEA countries.",
