Ensuring a Multidisciplinary Approach Facilitating Information Exchange:  Code of Conduct  High-level principles to ensure appropriate sharing and use of safety information  Safety Information Protection Task Force  Recommendations for ICAO to ensure availability of safety information, consistent with legal / judicial requirements  Communication and outreach strategies being developed  Deliverables expected within 18 months  Technical Harmonization Study Group  Development of common safety metrics and analysis methods  Requirements for interoperable tools and information systems  Work planned to begin early next year

Harmonizing & sharing information Speaking a common language:  Accident and Hazard classifications must be aligned.  ADREP  34 Occurrence Categories – 10 directly related to runway safety  Approximately 800 event codes  Improvements being developed to enhance use as a Safety Management reporting system Improving reporting and information sharing techniques
