ED Decision 2022/011/R
CHANGES REQUIRING OR NOT REQUIRING PRIOR APPROVAL
Point 145.A.85 is structured as follows:
- Point (a) introduces an obligation of prior approval (by the competent authority) for specific cases listed under (1) to (5);
- Point (b) address all instances (including (a)) where this Annex (Part-145) explicitly requires an approval by the competent authority (e.g. procedure for use of alternative tooling or equipment, ref. 145.A.40(a)(i)). Changes relevant to these instances should be considered as changes requiring a prior approval (see list in GM1 145.A.85(b)), unless otherwise specified by this Annex (Part-145).
Point (b) also indicates how all changes requiring prior approval should be handled;
- Point (c) introduces the possibility for the organisation to agree with the competent authority that certain changes to the organisation (other than those covered by (a) or (b)) can be implemented without prior approval depending on the compliance and safety performance of the organisation, and in particular, on its capability to apply change management principles.
