Regulation (EU) 2017/373
(a) An air traffic services
provider shall determine the safety acceptability of a change to a functional
system, based on the analysis of the risks posed by the introduction of the
change, differentiated on basis of types of operations and stakeholder classes,
as appropriate.
(b) The safety acceptability
of a change shall be assessed by using specific and verifiable safety
criteria, where each criterion is expressed in terms of an explicit,
quantitative level of safety risk or another measure that relates to safety
risk.
(c) An air traffic services
provider shall ensure that the safety criteria:
(1) are justified for the
specific change, taking into account the type of change;
(2) when fulfilled, predict
that the functional system after the change will be as safe as it was before
the change or the air traffic services provider shall provide an argument
justifying that:
(i) any temporary reduction
in safety will be offset by future improvement in safety; or
(ii) any permanent reduction
in safety has other beneficial consequences;
(3) when taken collectively,
ensure that the change does not create an unacceptable risk to the safety of
the service;
(4) support the improvement of
safety whenever reasonably practicable.
