OCCURRENCES FOR WHICH THE AGENCY IS THE COMPETENT AUTHORITY

Occurrences that are related to natural or legal persons, organisations or products, which are certified or overseen by EASA, should be notified to EASA if:

(a) the occurrence is defined as a reportable occurrence in accordance with the applicable regulations;

(b) the natural or legal person or organisation responsible for addressing the occurrence is certified or overseen by EASA; and

(c) the competent authority of the Member State has come to the conclusion that:

(1) the natural or legal person or organisation certified or overseen by EASA to which the occurrence relates was not informed of the occurrence; or

(2) the occurrence has not been properly addressed or has been left unattended by the natural or legal person or organisation certified or overseen by EASA.

Such occurrence data should be reported in a format compatible with the European Co-ordination Centre for Accident and Incident Reporting Systems (ECCAIRS) and should provide all relevant information for its assessment and analysis, including necessary additional files in the form of attachments.
