ED Decision 2019/007/R
SYSTEM-WIDE COORDINATION OF RAMP INSPECTIONS
In order to ensure a coordinated approach in establishing a risk-based number of ramp inspections for operators, the Agency should establish annual targets. When doing so, the following should be taken into account:
(a) Such targets should only be established for operators flying to Member States’ territories located in the ICAO EUR region;
(b) The targets for the upcoming year should be distributed to the Member States at the latest by 1 December and updated at least once during the upcoming year; and
(c) The targets should be established per Member State for two layers of operators as follows:
(1) a target number of inspections for each operator for which the average number of commercial flights for the previous 12 months in each Member State is beyond a threshold defined by the Agency, based on an assessment of the safety risks and the number of flights (‘layer 1’);
(2) an overall target number of inspections for those operators not covered by (1) (‘layer 2’).
