A21-U: Official Emblem and Seal of ICAO THE ASSEMBLY, HAVING CONSIDERED the recommendation of the Council regarding the emblem and seal of ICAO, 1. RESOLVES that the designs reproduced below shall be the official emblem and seal of the International Civil Avi- ation Organization; and 2. DECLARES that this resolution supersedes Resolution A10-11. Official Emblem Official Seal A21-5: Abrogation of Resolution A19-2 RECALLING Resolution A19-2 adopted at its Extraordinary Session in 1973; BEARING in mind Resolutions 2555 (XXIV) and 270U (XXV) of the General Assembly of the United Nations, and especially Resolutions 2707 (XXV) and 151^ (XV) and all other relevant resolutions of the General Assembly and the Security Council concerning in particular the right to independence for the peoples of Angola, Mozambique and Guinea Bissau;
TAKING into account the relevant provisions of Resolutions 2980 (XXVII) and 287U (XXVI) of the United Nations General Assembly, which, among other things, urge, once again the specialized agencies and other organizations within the United Nations system to take all necessary financial, economic and technical measures against the Governments of Portugal and South Africa and the illegal regime in Southern Rhodesia "until they renounce their policies of racial discrimination and colonial oppression"; RECOGNISING the need for maximum co-operation with the United Nations General Assembly and the Organization of African Unity; HAVING NOTED the declaration of the Portuguese Government concerning the right to independence of the colonial peoples of Angola, Guinea Bissau and Mozambique; CONSIDERING that the application of this declaration by Portugal is a renunciation of its policies of colonial oppression; CONSIDERING that Guinea Bissau has already obtained its independence and bearing in mind the fact that Mozambique will do so in 1975; BEING CONVINCED that this process of decolonisation by Portugal is irreversible and that it will end only after all its African territories have become independent; THE ASSEMBLY 1. COMMENDS Portugal and requests it to actively pursue the implementation of this process with a view to liberating all its colonial territories in Africa; 2. DECIDES that Resolution A19-2 shall be rescinded as soon as the United Nations or the OAU has lifted the measures against Portugal; 3. DIRECTS the Council to take appropriate measures for the implementation of the present resolution, which would cancel Resolution A19-2.
А21-6: Suspension of the Voting Power of South Africa BEARING IN MIND Resolutions 2555 and 270U of the General Assembly of the United Nations regarding the Government of South Africa; RECALLING its own Resolution A18-U wherein the Assembly decided, in pursuance of the United Nations General Assembly Resol- utions above mentioned, that: a) South Africa shall not be invited to attend any meetings convened by ICAO, except as provided in Articles U8(b), 53 and 57(b) of the Chicago Convention; b) South Africa shall not be provided with any ICAO docu- ments or communications except (i) in cases where the Con- vention specifically requires that such documents or com- munications be provided and (ii) documents for meetings which South Africa is permitted to attend; RECALLING that in pursuance of the said Resolution the ICAO Council decided to limit the type of documents and communications that would be provided to South Africa and the meetings to . which it would be invited, and accordingly so informed the Government of South Africa in the Secretary General's letters of 21 October 1971 and 26 November 1971; BEARING IN MIND the response of the South African Government in its letter dated 8 December 1972 wherein it deliberately took certain actions, namely: a) it decided that Resolution A18-h of the ICAO Assembly "was unconstitutional and that the action of the Council was without legal basis, both because it flowed out of an unconstitutional action of the Assembly.and because it ignored the provisions of Article 52 of the Chicago Con- vention" ; b) it reduced its contribution to the regular budget by 30% and reserved the right to revise that figure "in the light of experience", in violation of Resolution A18-26 dealing with apportionment of ICAO expenses among Contracting States and also in violation of Resolution A18-23 dealing with the budget for the period 1972, 1973 and 197^;
BEING CONVINCED that these actions were taken in contemptuous disregard of the United Nations General Assembly Resolutions and defiance of the ICAO Assembly powers under Article- 61 of the Chicago Con- vention; NOTING that South Africa has deliberately refused to pay her annual assessments in full for the years 1972, 1973 and 197^which action constitutes a deliberate failure to discharge its finan- cial obligations to the Organization; NOTING that South Africa's action seriously undermines the authority of ICAO and impairs the Organization's capacity to fulfil its functions and obligations; NOTING also that South Africa's action, if allowed to continue, would constitute an unhealthy and dangerous precedent; BEARING IN MIND the numerous instances of violation in the past of the Resolutions of the ICAO Assembly and the United Nations General Assembly by South Africa as well as the present breach of the Chicago Convention; CONSIDERING that, notwithstanding Clause 6 of Resolution A21-10, exceptional action is required with respect to South Africa; THE. ASSEMBLY DECIDES to suspend the voting power of South Africa in the Assembly, in accordance with Article 62 of the Chicago Con- vention A21-7: The airport of Jerusalem WHEREAS Jerusalem lies in the occupied Arab territories and is registered under the jurisdiction of Jordan in the ICAO Middle East Air Navigation Plan; RECALLING that Articles 1, 5 and 6 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation provide that Contracting States recognize that every State has complete and exclusive sovereignty over the airspace above its territory and that no scheduled air services, or non-scheduled inter- national air services for the purpose of taking on or discharging passengers, cargo or mail, may be operated over or into the territory of a Contracting State except with the special permission or other authorization by that State;
THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that all Contracting States should, in implementation of the above relevant Articles of the Convention, take all necessary measures to refrain from operating, or giving permission to any air- line to operate, any air service, whether scheduled or non-scheduled, to or from Jerusalem airport, unless prior permission is granted pursuant to the provisions of the said Articles. A21-8: Relations between ICAO and the Regional Civil Aviation Bodies and between those Bodies and Contracting States not members of them WHEREAS Resolution A10-5, which governs the relationship between ICAO and the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC), provides for close liaison between the two organizations and for ICAO to furnish secretariat and other services requested by ECAC; WHEREAS Resolution A18-21, and the resolutions which it superseded, invites the Council to give sympathetic consideration to requests for assistance in air transport matters of regional interest and to support the creation, on the request of States, of regional civil aviation bodies likely to establish with ICAO relations comparable to those which ICAO maintains with ECAC pursuant to Resolution A10-5; WHEREAS the work programme of ECAC, the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC) and the Latin American Civil Aviation Commission (LACAC) should be consistent with and can usefully complement the work ICAO is pursuing in the air transport field; and WHEREAS the relationship between ICAO and the regional bodies is working satisfactorily and the general policy in Resolutions A10-5 and A18-21 provides the necessary guidance to the Council and to the Secretary General; THE ASSEMBLY, NOTING that the provisions of the rules of procedure of the regional bodies foresee the possibility of informing ICAO, its Council and other interested parties about their activities, as well as of inviting interested Contracting States not members of the regional body in ques- tion to participate as observers in its meetings, RECOGNIZES the usefulness of these provisions and invites regional civil aviation bodies to give sympathetic consideration to the possi- bility of inviting ICAO Contracting States not members of the regional body in question to participate as observers in its meetings.
А21-9: Expeditious ratification of conventions relating to unlawful interference А21-10: WHEREAS the unlawful seizure of aircraft and other unlawful acts against the safety of civil aviation have a serious adverse effect on the safety, efficiency and regularity of air navigation and undermine the confidence of the peoples of the world in the safety of inter- national civil aviation; WHEREAS the safety and freedom of transit of passengers and crew must be a paramount consideration for all States following the unlawful seizure of an aircraft; WHEREAS it is desirable that Article 11 of the Tokyo Convention become a universally accepted international standard for the treatment to be accorded passengers and crews following the unlawful seizure of an aircraft; THE ASSEMBLY: 1» URGES all States to become parties as soon as possible to the Convention on Offences and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft.(Tokyo, 1963), the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft (The Hague, 1970) and the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of Civil .

ICAO Partici- pation in Technical Assistance Programmes Regional and Inter-regional Projects Administra- tive costs Regional Training Centres Co-ordination with other Aid Programmes WHEREAS the Assembly in 1971 adopted a consolidated Resolution, A18-8, dealing with the policies and procedures of technical assistance and has decided that this resolution should be replaced by the following: THE ASSEMBLY: A. Policy of ICAO 1 . APPROVES the steps taken by the Council of ICAO to partici- pate in the UNDP; recognizes and encourages the action taken by the Council in the field of technical assistance, which has been effectively provided with the limited funds available; requests the Council to continue to take such steps as may be necessary to ensure that the funds made available to the Organ- ization from that source are used to achieve the maximum results; .2 = REQUESTS that high priority continue to be given to the pro- cessing of regional and inter-regional projects because of the great benefit such projects represent; 3» ENDORSES the view of the Council that the cost of Headquarters administration and operation of ICAO technical assistance activi- ties should continue to be met: for the administration of UNDP projects, by that Programme, for other forms of technical assistance undertaken by ICAO, as, for example, funds-in-trust, by the interested parties; 4. CONCURS in the policy of establishing conveniently located training centres with aid requested by States from the UNDP and encourages Contracting States to regard these institutions as regional training centres which will provide advanced aeronautical training to neighbouring States; 5- AFFIRMS that in order to promote co-ordination of the technical assistance activities of ICAO with those of other civil aviation mutual aid programmes, there should be, in so far as is practicab. a regular exchange of information on plans and progress reports between ICAO and other civil aviation mutual aid programmes;
6. CONCURS with Resolution 90б (XXXIV) of the Economic and Social Council on the subject of education and training and stresses the importance of this subject in the field of civil aviation and in the better preparation of students for such specialized training; B. Action by States 7. URGES Contracting States to ensure that full consideration is given to their needs for assistance in the field of civil aviation when UNDP country programmes are formulated; 8. DRAWS THE ATTENTION of Contracting States requesting UNDP assistance to the advantages to be derived from individual programmes made up of well-defined projects based on the civil aviation development plans and urges States to co-operate with the Organization in defining as accurately as possible the task of each expert included in their individual programmes and to state clearly the scope of the assistance required when making requests to the UNDP or to some other mutual aid pro- gramme ; 9. REMINDS States engaged in country programming exercises of the need to prepare the project document for each project as early as possible during the exercise, so that the project can be implemented as quickly and completely as possible; 10. DRAWS THE ATTENTION of Contracting States to the usefulness of the UNDP assistance provided through the regional and inter- regional projects executed by ICAO; urges States to utilize further this type of assistance and to ensure that their national co-ordinating authorities give full support to those projects when preparing their inter-country programmes, so as to meet the needs of their civil aviation services; emphasizes that, unless full priority support of each project is so obtained, very use- ful projects for civil aviation will be lost; and reminds States that the funds available for inter-country projects in 197^-1976 have proved inadequate and that only fifty percent of projects put forward to the UNDP have been approved; 11. URGES States where Regional Training Centres are located and also States in the area, to support them and to send to them students whose tuition will be paid for by the States themselves, in addi- tion to those financed from UNDP funds;
Award of Fellowships Funds-in- Trust Operational Assistance (OPAS) 12. REMINDS States of the need to improve the implementation of fellowships by ensuring the timely nomination of candidates, and suggests that, at the commencement of any project, the State concerned establish a detailed sche'dule of implementation for eact fellowship so that nominations will be received by the Executing Agency in time to make the correct arrangements; 13. COMMENDS the Funds-in-Trust scheme and views with satisfaction the initiative of States in establishing Funds-in-Trust pro- grammes as a method of obtaining technical and operational assistance in the field of civil aviation, over and above that provided from the UNDP funds, by direct payment to ICAO of the money needed; and urges States to make greater use of this arrangement to expedite implementation of Regional Plans; 1Ц. DRAWS THE ATTENTION of Contracting States to the importance of and the benefits to be derived from the operational assistance experts under the UNDP and encourages those States needing such experts for their civil aviation activities to include them in their requests for assistance from the UNDP (Technical Assistance Approval 15. URGES States receiving assistance to' avoid project implementation of Experts delays by arranging for speedy decisions regarding experts pro- posed to them by ICAO for country projects; Counterparts 16. REMINDS States receiving UNDP assistance of their obligation to and National provide, as part of any project that requires the services of Staff experts in an advisory or training capacity, suitably qualified counterpart personnel from among their own personnel to work wit the ICAO experts, and to provide such opportunities and condition of service as are necessary to attract the continued services of such staff; furthermore, reminds States of the need to provide suitable incentives, within the limits of their resources, to ret the services, in their respective fields, of all students after they have completed their training; C. Expert s Recruitment of Experts I?. REQUESTS that Contracting States should, to the extent possible, co-operate with ICAO by encouraging experts in their service to apply for ICAO technical assistance work in the various branches of civil aviation and by facilitating their secondment for this purpose with the least possible delay; in referring candidates tc the Organization, Contracting States should endeavour to ensure that they are fully qualified technically and suitable personally for technical assistance work; States providing experts should
themselves maintain rosters of suitable candidates, due consider- ation being also given to the possibility of employing recently retired experts; and urges Contracting.States to consider the possibility of organizing their establishments in such a way as to be able to make available, at all times, a certain number of experts for technical assistance work; 1&. REQUESTS the Secretary General, to the extent possible taking into account the element of time and the urgency of particular projects, to announce vacancies in technical assistance projects executed by the Organization to States in good time, so as to permit States providing experts to submit candidates for consideration; such announcements should contain sufficient precise detail to enable the States to nominate personnel having the specific qualifications necessary to fill a vacancy. FURTHERMORE THE ASSEMBLY: DECLARES that Resolution A18-8 is superseded by this Resolution. A21-18: Allocation of UNDP funds for inter-country programmes WHEREAS in the field of aviation, inter-country projects are frequently very efficacious in the provision of assistance; WHEREAS the inter-regional and regional projects carried out by ICAO during the past decade, and particularly those involving fellowships and short- term assignments of experts, have contributed considerably toward improve- ment in the safety and efficiency of operation of air transport in the developing countries; WHEREAS although the Governing Council of the UNDP authorized the use of up to 18$ of the UNDP's net Resources for inter-country programming, the Indicative Planning Figures actually allocated for 1972-1976 amounted only to 15$; WHEREAS during inter-country programming for the 197^-1976 period the inter- country projects of the fellowship/short-term expert type put forward by ICAO to the UNDP had to be drastically reduced, in large part because of the shortage of available funds in the inter-country Indicative Planning Figures; WHEREAS the funds which are estimated to be available to the UNDP until the end of 1976 are already completely allocated;
THE ICAO ASSEMBLY RECOMMENDS to the UNDP Governing Council 1. that, in planning for the 1977-1981 quinquennium, the need of civil aviation for considerably more funds for inter-country programming than those available from 1972 to 1976 should be borne in mind, and consideration should be given to increasing these funds beyond the established maximum of 18%; 2- that favourable consideration be given, within the UNDP, to increasing the allocations for assistance in civil aviation, particularly in those regions where the present allocations are relatively low. A21-19: International Civil Aviation and the Human Environment WHEREAS ICAO's position related to the quality of the human environment was formulated by the Assembly at its 18th Session in Resolution A18-11 for communication to the International Conference on the Problems of the Human Environment (Stockholm, June 1972); WHEREAS by this Resolution ICAO accepted full responsibility for pursuing a course aimed at achieving maximum compatibility between the safe and orderly development of civil aviation and the quality of the human environment; WHEREAS in a further Resolution,A18-12, the Assembly requested the Council to continue with vigour the work related to the development of Standards, Recommended Practices and Procedures and/or guidance material dealing with the quality of the human environment; WHEREAS in pursuit of that Resolution the Air Navigation Commission, on instructions from the Council, has established a comprehensive Action Programme Regarding the Environment which integrates the technical work related to the development of Standards, Recommended Practices, Procedures and guidance on all aviation environmental questions on which international agreement or guidance is required; and WHEREAS this ICAO action programme envisages co-operation with other inter- national organizations, as necessary, including possible participation in projects financed by the United Nations Environment Fund;
THE ASSEMBLY: 1. DECLARES that the action on environmental matters thus far taken by the Council is in accordance with the intent of Resolutions A18-11 and A18-12; 2. REQUESTS the Council to maintain its vigilance in the pursuit of aviation interests related to the human environment in accordance with the position stated in Resolution A18-11 and with the provisions of Resolution A18-12; 3 INVITES States to continue their active support for ICAO's Action Programme Regarding the Environment on all appropriate occasions as their participation in civil aviation's contribution to the United Nations Environment Programme; h. AUTHORIZES the Council, if and when it deems this desirable,to enter into co-operative arrangements with the United Nations Environment Programme for the execution of environmental projects financed by the United Nations Environment Fund. A21-20: Co-operation among Contracting States in investigations of certain aircraft accidents WHEREAS it is incumbent on the State in which an accident occurs to insiimte an inquiry into the circumstances of the accident in conformity with Article 26 of the Convention; WHEREAS it is becoming increasingly evident that, owing to the growing sophistication and complexity of modern aircraft, the conduct of an accident investigation requires participation by experts from many specialized technical fields and access to specially equipped facilities for testing; WHEREAS many Contracting States do not have such specialized technical expertise and facilities; WHEREAS a problem exists owing to the lack of such resources; WHEREAS it is essential for aircraft and accident prevention that accidents be thoroughly investigated and that the effectiveness of investigations should not be unduly hampered by considerations of cost; WHEREAS the costs of salvage and investigation of major aircraft accidents may place a heavy financial burden on the resources of the State where the accident occurred;
THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES: to recommend that Contracting States co-operate in the investigation of major aircraft accidents or accidents in which the investigation requires highly specialized experts and facilities, and that to this end Contracting States, to the extent possible, inter alia: a) provide, on request by other Contracting States, expert assistance and facilities for the investigation of major aircraft accidents; and b) afford opportunity to Contracting States seeking investigation ex- perience to attend investigations of major aircraft accidents in the interest of developing and furthering investigation expertise. THE ASSEMBLY FURTHER RESOLVES that the Council, as a matter of urgency, should study: a) means by which Contracting States could be made aware of expertise and facilities which, on request, might be made available by other Contracting States; and b) types of costs and financial implications of investigations of major aircraft accidents including salvage, and of investigations requiring special expertise, with a view to establishing possible means for apportioning these costs. A21-21: Consolidated Statement of Continuing Policies and Associated Practices Related Specifically to Air Navigation WHEREAS in Resolution A15-9 the Assembly resolved to adopt in each Session for which a Technical Commission is established a consolidated statement of continuing policies related specifically to air navigation up to date as at the end of that Session; WHEREAS a statement of continuing policies and associated practices related specifically to air navigation as they existed at the end of the 18th Session of the Assembly was adopted by the Assembly in Resolution A18-13, Appendices A to S inclusive; WHEREAS the Assembly has reviewed a draft revised statement prepared by the Council and has amended it to reflect the decisions taken during the 21st Session; and WHEREAS Resolution A15-10 and the statement of continuing policies in Resolution A18-13 are hereby superseded;

RESOLVES that: a) the Appendices attached to this Resolution constitute the consolidated statement of continuing air navigation policies and associated practices of the Organization as they exist at the close of the 21st Session of the Assembly; b) the practices associated with the individual policies in the Appendices constitute guidance intended to facilitate and ensure implementation of the respective policies; 2. DECLARES that this Resolution supersedes Resolution A15-10 and Resol- ution A18-13, with its Appendices A to S. APPENDIX A Formulation of Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) and Procedures for Air Navigation Services fPANS) WHEREAS Article 57 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation requires the Organization to adopt and amend international standards and recommended practices and procedures and states the purpose of and the matters to be dealt with in that action, and Articles 58, 5^, 57 and 9° contain additional relevant provisions; and WHEREAS the Assembly deems it advisable to establish certain policies to be followed in complying with these provisions of the Convention; THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that: 1. the terms "Standard" and "Recommended Practice" shall have the following meanings: a) Standard - any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, materiel, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognized as necessary for the safety or regularity of international air navigation and to which Contracting States will conform in accordance with the Convention; in the event of impossibility of compliance, notification to the Council is compulsory under Article 58 of the Conve tion;
b) Recommended Practice - any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, materiel, performance, personnel- or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognized as desirable in the interest of safety, regularity or efficiency of international air navigation and to which Contracting States will endeavour to conform in accordance with the Convention; 2. SARPS and PANS shall be amended as necessary to reflect changing requirements and techniques and thus, inter alia, to provide a sound basis for regional planning and the provision of facilities and services; 5, subject to the foregoing clause, a high degree of stability in SARPS shall be maintained to enable the Contracting States to maintain stability in their national regulations. To this end amendments shall be limited to those significant to safety, regularity and efficiency, and editorial amendments shall be made only if essential; U. SARPS and PANS shall be drafted in clear, simple and concise language; 5« to the extent consistent with the requirements of safety and regularity, standards specifying the provision of facilities and services shall reflect a proper balance between the operational requirements for such facilities and services and the economic implications of providing them; 6. Contracting States shall be consulted on proposals for the amendment of SARPS and PANS before the Council acts on them, except when the Council may deem urgent action to be necessary; 7. the applicability dates of amendments to SARPS and PANS shall be so established as to allow the Contracting States sufficient time for their implementation; and 8* unless exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise, the applicability dates of amendments to Annexes and PANS shall be so established as to avoid the need for Contracting States to amend their national regulations more often than twice per calendar year. In the application of the foregoing, whenever practicable, any one Annex or PANS document shall not be amended more frequently than once per calendar year.
ASSOCIATED PRACTICES 1. The Council should ensure that provisions of SARPS and PANS are completely co-ordinated. 2. Contracting States should comment fully and in detail on the proposals for amendment of SARPS and PANS or at least should express their agreement or disagreement on their substance. They should be allowed at least three months for this purpose. 5. Contracting States should be allowed a full three months for notifying disapproval of adopted SARPS amendments; in establish- ing a date for notifying disapproval the Council should take into account the time needed for transmission of the adopted amendments and for receipt of notifications from States. APPENDIX В Air Navigation Meetings of World-wide Scope WHEREAS the holding of world-wide air navigation meetings is an important function of ICAO and entails substantial expenditures of effort and money by the Contracting States and the Organization; and WHEREAS it is necessary to ensure that maximum benefit is obtained from these meetings without imposing any undue burden upon the Contracting States or the Organization; THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that: 1. meetings; convened by the Council, in which all Contracting States may participate on an equal basis shall be the principal means of progressing problems of world-wide import, including the developnent of amendments to the Annexes and other basic documents in the air navigation field; 2. such meetings shall be convened only when justified by the number and importance of the problems to be dealt with and their maturity for constructive action; meetings convened on this basis may, however, also be requested to conduct exploratory discussions on matters not mature for definite action;
5. the organization of such meetings shall be arranged so that they are best suited to carry out the assigned task and to provide proper co-ordination among the technical specialities involved; and 4. unless necessitated by extraordinary circumstances, not more than two such meetings shall be convened in a calendar year, and successive meetings dealing extensively with the same technical speciality shall be separated by at least twelve months. ASSOCIATED H1ACTICES 1. Before deciding to refer a matter to a world-wide meeting, the Council should consider whether correspondence with States or use of machinery such as Panels or Secretariat Study Groups could dispose of it or facilitate subsequent action on it by a future meeting. 2. The agenda should be sufficiently explicit to define the task to be performed and to indicate the types of specialized expertise that will be needed at the meeting. In an agenda including more than one technical speciality the types of experts called for should be kept to the minimum compatible with efficiency. 3. To facilitate the participation of all Contracting States, the Council should so plan the meeting programme as to keep to the minimum, consistent with efficiency, the demands upon the time of States' technical officials. U. The planned duration of a meeting should allow adequate time for completion of the agenda, study of the report as drafted in the working languages of the meeting and approval of the report. Following the meeting, the Secretariat should make any necessary minor editorial amendments and typographical corrections to the meeting report. 5. The approved agenda and the main supporting documentation should be dispatched, normally by air, not less than three months in advance of the convening date; other documentation should be dispatched as soon as possible. APPENDIX C Panels of the Air Navigation Commission (ANC) WHEREAS panels of the Air Navigation Commission have proved a valuable medium for advancing the solution of specialized technical problems; and
WHEREAS it is necessary to ensure that maximum benefit is obtained frc Air Navigation Commission panels without .imposing any undue burden upon the Contracting States or the Organization; THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that: 1. panels of the Air Navigation Commission shall be established when it is necessary to advance the solution of specialized technical problems which cannot be solved adequately or expeditiously by the Air Navigation Commission through other established facilities; 2‘ the terms of reference of panels shall be clear and concise and the panels shall be required to adhere to them; 3. the progress of panels of the Air Navigation Commission shall be reviewed periodically and panels shall be terminated as soon as the task assigned to them has been accomplished. A panel shall be allowed to continue in existence for more than four years only if its continuation is considered justified by the Air Navigation Commission. ASSOCIATED PRACTICE Reports should be clearly presented as the advice of a group of experts to the Air Navigation Commission so that they cannot be construed as representing the views of Contracting States. APPENDIX- D Implementation of Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) and ~ Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS) WHEREAS Article 37 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation requires each Contracting State to collaborate in securing the highest practicable degree of uniformity in regulations and practices in al 1 matters in which such uniformity will facilitate and improve air navigation; WHEREAS in accordance with Article 38 of the Convention any Contracting State which finds it impractical to comply in all respects with any international standard or procedure and deems it necessary to adopt regulations or practices differing therefrom is obliged to give immediate notification to ICAO; and WHEREAS it is important that all available means of the Organization be employed in encouraging and assisting the Contracting States in overcoming their difficulties in implementation of SARPS and PANS;
THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that: 1 . Contracting States shall be encouraged and assisted in the implementation of SARPS and PANS by all available means; and 2 . the differences between the regulations and the practices of Contracting States and the SARPS and PANS shall be monitored with the aim of encouraging the elimination of those differences that are important for the safety of international air navigation or are inconsistent with the objectives of the international standards. ASSOCIATED PRACTICES 1. In encouraging and assisting Contracting States in the application of SARPS and PANS the Council should make use of all existing means including the resources of the Headquarters, the ICAO regional offices and the United Nations Development Programme. 2. Contracting States should continue, and where necessary should intensify, their efforts to apply at their operating installations practices and procedures that are in accordance with the current SARPS and PANS. In this regard, the Contracting States should consider the practicability of modifying the internal processes by which they give effect to the provisions of SARPS and PANS, if such modifications would expedite or simplify the processes or make them more effective. J. The Council should urge Contracting States to notify the Organiza- tion of any differences that exist between their national regula- tions and practices and the provisions of SARPS as well as the date or dates by which they will comply with the SARPS. The notifications of differences from SARPS received should be promptly issued in Supplements to the relevant Annexes. Contracting States should also be requested to publish in their AIPs any significant differences from the SARPS and PANS. In the monitoring of the differences from SARPS and PANS, the Council should request reports from Contracting States that have not reported, or have incompletely reported, to the Organization the implementation of SARPS. Furthermore, the Council should also request Contracting States that have not published in their AIPs information on the implementation of SARPS and PANS to publish it.
APPENDIX E ICAO Technical Manuals WHEREAS up-to-date technical guidance material made available through ICAO provides extremely valuable assistance to administrations in the planning for implementation of Standards and Recommended Practices, Procedures for Air Navigation Services and Regional Plans; WHEREAS it is equally important to provide for the availability of appropriate technical guidance for the training of staff and the updating of the knowledge of operating personnel, as warranted by advancing technology, thus improving the quality of service and enhancing the level of safety in air operations; and WHEREAS no satisfactory alternative exists for the provision of such guidance material on an international level other th®n uader the aegis of ICAO; THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that; 1. priority be provided for the continuing updating of the contents of present ICAO Manuals and the development of. additional guidance Manuals as warranted by advancing technologys thus enswiag optimum value for States in their implementation of Standards, Recommended Practices and Procedures for Air Navigation Services as well as planning and implementation for the provision of facilities and services; and 2. the ICAO Manuals Programme be kept under review by the Council s© as to ensure that al 1 appropriate technical fields are adequately covered by the necessary guidance material» APPENDIX F Units of Measurement WHEREAS in the interest of safety of international air operations unification of units of measurement should be achieved; and WHEREAS it is important that standard units of measurement are used in ICAO air navigation publications;
THE ASSEMBLY RESOLVES that: 1, the unification of units of measurement to be used in inter- national civil aviation shall be achieved on the basis of the International System of Units (si) except in those cases in which it appears impracticable or undesirable to do so; 2. meanwhile, in all ICAO air navigation publications the units of measurement shall be expressed primarily in the units of the ICAO Table of Annex 5 where appropriate units exist therein; 5. in addition to (2) above, equivalent units of measurement (or approximate equivalents if more suitable) may be expressed in those publications: i) normally in the units of measurement of the SI system and of the Blue Table of Annex 5 where these differ from the units of the ICAO Table; or ii) in other units of measurement that are in general use in international air navigation; and Ц. notwithstanding J ii) above, any equivalents of the ICAO Table used in examples of air/ground communications shall be drawn either from the Blue Table or from the SI units. ASSOCIATED PRACTICE The Council, in order to achieve the objective of unification of units of measurement to be used in international aviation on the basis of the SI system, should monitor progress made by States and take such steps as are necessary to speed up the achievement of this objective by ICAO. APPENDIX G Certificates of Airworthiness, Certificates of Competency and Licences of Flight Crews WHEREAS Article JJ of the Convention does not explicitly define the purposes for which recognition is to be accorded to certificates and licences; WHEREAS several interpretations exist as to whether or not there is any obligation on Contracting States to recognize certificates and licences issued or rendered valid by other Contracting States pending the coming into force of SARPS applicable to the aircraft or airmen involved; and

А21-35 •' Amendment of the Financial Regulations THE ASSEMBLY NOTES that: 1 . continuing uncertainty in world economic developments seriously complicates the administration of the financial affairs of the Organization; 2. certain operations of the Organization which generate miscellaneous income have grown in scope; 3. Council has recommended certain amendments to the Financial Regu- lations to enable it better to cope with present conditions; and therefore RESOLVES that the Financial Regulations be amended as follows, effective upon adoption of this Resolution: 1. Amend Financial Regulation 5.2 a) to read as follows: "a) Up to an amount not exceeding $200 000 in respect of the first year following adoption of the budget, $1*00 000 in respect of the second year and $200 000 in respect of the third year, to meet unavoidable expenditures other than those specified in Regu- lation 5-2 b) and c);" 2. Amend Financial Regulation 5-2 c) to read as follows: "c) Irrespective of a) and b) above, up to the amount by which actual miscellaneous income for the financial year exceeds the estimated amount of miscellaneous income taken into account by the Assembly in approving the appropriations for that year, to finance expenses directly related to the sources of such additional miscellaneous income." A21-36: Working Capital Fund THE ASSEMBLY NOTES that: 1. in accordance with Resolution A18-28 the Council has reported upon and the Assembly has considered the adequacy of the level of the Working Capital Fund and the related borrowing authority; 2. the level of the Working Capital Fund has been adequate and the financial position of the Organization has been satisfactory during the years 1971, 1972 and 1973;
3. it is considered not necessary at this time to assess Contracting States for cash deficits caused by arrears in contributions; 1* . the increase in arrears in payment of assessed contributions by Contracting States has become more serious during recent years and this could weaken the financial position of the Organization unless corrected; 5- the percentage relationship of the present level of the Working Capital Fund to the annual appropriation would substantially decrease under the appropriation levels likely to be approved for 1975-1976-1977; 6. it has not been necessary for the Organization to use the borrowing authority approved by the Eighteenth Assembly; 7 the Council ..has recommended an increase in the level of the Working Capital Fund and continuance of the borrowing authority in the next triennium because of the increased expense level anticipated and the un- certain future effect of economic developments on the Organization's expenses; and therefore RESOLVES: 1. that the level of the Working Capital Fund be established at $1 500 000 effective 1 January 1975> subject to the temporary increases resulting from advances paid by new States becoming members of the Organization after approval of the 1975 scale of assessments; 2. * that the increased level of the Working Capital Fund be attained as follows: a) the amount of the assessed advance to the Working Capital Fund of each Member State on 1 January 1975 shall be determined on the basis of the 100$ scale of assessments for the General Fund for 1975; b) Contracting States shall have credited toward such assessed advances under a) above the amounts of their individual equities in the Working Capital Fund as of 31 December 197^ and shall pay (or be credited with) the balance in connection with their 1975 General Fund assess- ment s; 3. that to finance regular and supplementary appropriations that cannot be financed from the General Fund and the Working Capital Fund, the Secretary General be authorized, with the prior approval of the Finance Committee of the Council, to borrow amounts needed to meet immediate obligations of the. Organization, and that he be required to repay such amounts as rapidly as possible, the outstanding total of such indebtedness of the Organization at no time to exceed $U00 000 during the year 1975 and at no time to exceed $500 000 during the remainder of the-triennium;
U. that the Council shall report to the next major session of the Assembly: a) on the adequacy of the level of the Working Capital Fund in the light of experience during 197U, 1975 and 1976; and b) whether the financial position of the General Fund and the Working Capital Fund would indicate the need for assessing Contracting States for cash deficits caused by arrears of contributions; 5. that Resolution A18-28 is no longer effective and is hereby superseded; and URGES that States in arrears meet their obligations to the Organization as promptly as possible and that all Contracting States pay their assessments as early as in the year in which they fall due as their financial systems permit, in order to lessen the need for the Organization to draw on the Working Capital Fund. A21-37: Confirmation of Council action in assessing the contributions to the General Fund and determining advances to the Working Capital Fund of States which have adhered to the Convention and redetermination of the assessment of Pakistan as recommended by the Council THE ASSEMBLY: 1. NOTES that: a) Financial Regulations 6.8 and 7>^ provide that the Council shall, if the Assembly is not in session, determine the contributions of a new Contracting State, subject to approval or adjustment at the next session of the Assembly; and b) the Council has acted accordingly in respect of the States which became members of the International Civil Aviation Organization after the Eighteenth Session of the Assembly, and assessable, as indicated below; and c) as a consequence of the membership of Bangladesh, the Council has recommended that the Assembly redetermine the assessment percentage of Pakistan to be .27^ effective 1 February 1973 for the remainder of that year and for 197^; and therefore 2.
