The text of this material has been developed by EASA based on the input of the RMT.0723 Rulemaking Group (RMG) and adjusted with consideration given to comments received during the public consultation under EASA NPA 2019 -10. The comments received on the NPA and the EASA responses to them have been reflected in a CRD. Subsequent to this tasking, upon advice given to DG MOVE by the European Commission’s Legal Service, the Commission advised EASA not to issue an ED Decision. This finalised supporting technical material has been made available by the Commission Services. It is accessible through the Single European Sky (eusinglesky) portal. --- [[31]](#_ftnref31) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/317 of 11 February 2019 laying down a performance and charging scheme in the single European sky and repealing Implementing Regulations (EU) No 390/2013 and (EU) No 391/2013 (OJ L 56, 25.2.2019, p. 1) (<https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?qid=1566568320291&uri=CELEX:32019R0317>).
