  "text": "(a)In addition to point M.A.606(g), certifying staff can only exercise their privileges, if the organisation has ensured:\n1..that certifying staff can demonstrate that they meet the requirements of point (b) of point 66.A.20 of Annex III (Part-66) or, where that Annex so requires, the requirements of any relevant enactment;\n2..that certifying staff have an adequate understanding of the relevant aircraft and/or aircraft component(s) to be maintained together with the associated organisation procedures.\n(b)In the following unforeseen cases, where an aircraft is grounded at a location other than the main base where no appropriate certifying staff is available, the maintenance organisation contracted to provide maintenance support may issue a one-off certification authorisation:\n1..to one of its employees holding type qualifications on aircraft of similar technology, construction and systems; or\n2..to any person with not less than three years maintenance experience and holding a valid ICAO aircraft maintenance licence rated for the aircraft type requiring certification provided there is no organisation appropriately approved under this Part at that location and the contracted organisation obtains and holds on file evidence of the experience and the licence of that person.\nAll such cases must be reported to the CAA within seven days after issuing such certification authorisation. The approved maintenance organisation issuing the one-off certification authorisation shall ensure that any such maintenance that could affect flight safety is re-checked.\n(c)The approved maintenance organisation shall record all details concerning certifying staff and airworthiness review staff and maintain a current list of all certifying staff and airworthiness review staff together with their scope of approval as part of the organisation's manual pursuant to point M.A.604(a)5.",
