Legal experts consider how to enhance information sharing on legal matters
Videoconference, 30 March 2023 — The ECAC Legal Task Force met virtually to kick off this year’s meetings of the group. Participants discussed the 2023 work programme as agreed by Directors General in December 2022. The meeting considered how best to implement an effective approach to information sharing across the group on key legal matters to enable learning from precedents established under new or complex cases.
Updates on recent global engagement were shared by several of the task force members who had taken part in these. In particular, this included work under the ICAO Legal Committee and representation at the second Civil Legal Advisors Forum (CALAF/2) in February 2023. A discussion took place on input from the task force to provide Directors General with legal expertise on assessing the terms and conditions document for ECAC's possible participation in the ICAO Assistance, Capacity-building and Training for Sustainable Aviation Fuels (ACT-SAF) programme.
