Certification Process and ESARR 1 ESARR 1, Safety Oversight in ATM, Edition 1.0  Was approved by the PC in November 2004  Defines the processes to be implemented by NSAs to ensure an effective safety oversight function to ensure an effective safety oversight function  ESARR 1 does not require certification of ANSPs  It does not define what has to be verified by an NSA

ESARR 1, Safety Oversight in ATM, Edition 1.0  ESARR 1 addresses the overall safety oversight process  Actions needed to verify the safety-related requirements relevant to a specific situation… in a “specific situation” such as…... Certification or Ongoing Supervision in a “specific situation” such as…... Certification or Ongoing Supervision Certification Process and ESARR 1

SESIS and ESARR 1  Within SESIS, ESARR 1 has provided a major input to the development of guidance for use by NSAs  ESARR 1 sets the standard for NSA in relation to safety  Model process that may be applied in relation to non- safety related requirements  Its implementation period (by November 2007) covers the current certification process in SES Implement ESARR 1… … and you will be doing the right thing to address safety in the certification process Implement ESARR 1… … and you will be doing the right thing to address safety in the certification process

SESIS and ESARR 1 SRC decided to:  Give priority to the production of ESARR 1 guidance to support the certification process  Coordinate with the Agency the use of this guidance to support SESIS with safety oversight inputs To identify the features that any certification procedure should contain to ensure an effective implementation of ESARR 1

SESIS and ESARR 1 Safety auditing approach compliant with ESARR 1 and supported by comprehensive SRC guidance (EAM 1 / GUI 3) Safety auditing approach compliant with ESARR 1 and supported by comprehensive SRC guidance (EAM 1 / GUI 3) To be applied for all the safety-related common requirements:  Those intended to transpose ESARRs  Those referring to safety-related operational or technical matters operational or technical matters SESIS integrates this approach into its certification model

CONCLUSIONS REGARDING ESARR 1 SESIS GUIDANCE integrates the features ESARR 1 requires to verify safety in any certification process:  Consistently with ESARR 1  With flexibility to fit other arrangements for the supervision of non-safety related requirements REGARDING ESARRs applicable to ANSPs  Implementation of Safety Management Systems is key…  SESIS takes onboard the work done so far in relation to the ESARRs:  ESARRs exceed the CRs intended to transpose them  ESARRs are supported by comprehensive guidance material
