Regulation (EU) 2023/659
(a) The Agency shall establish and maintain a monitoring programme covering the activities required by ART.215 and, if applicable, by Subpart ARO.RAMP.
(b) The monitoring programme shall be developed taking into account the results of past authorisation and/or monitoring activities.
(c) The Agency shall perform a review of third country operators at intervals not exceeding 24 months.
The interval may be reduced if there are indications that the safety performance of the third country operator and/or the oversight capabilities of the State of the operator may have decreased below the applicable standards contained in the Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation.
The Agency may extend the interval to a maximum of 48 months if it has established that, during the previous monitoring period:
(1) there are no indications that the overseeing authority of the State of the operator fails to perform effective oversight on operators under its oversight responsibility;
(2) the third country operator has continuously and timely reported changes referred to in TCO.315;
(3) no level 1 findings, referred to in ART.230(b), have been issued; and
(4) all corrective actions have been implemented within the time period accepted or extended by the Agency as defined in ART.230(e)(1).
(d) The monitoring programme shall include records of the dates of monitoring activities, including meetings.
(e) When determining the review interval, the Agency shall take into consideration the size, type and complexity of the operation, available information on the number of flights performed under the TCO authorisation, and the relevant elements referred to in point ART.200(c).
ART.220 requires an Agency monitoring programme, reviews of third country operators within set intervals, recorded monitoring dates, and consideration of safety, oversight, operations, and corrective actions.
