On Thursday 21 April, the European Commission launched a call for contributions to assess the extent to which the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has fulfilled its objectives, mandate and tasks.
The evaluation will assess the impact of the basic Regulation, objectives, mandate, tasks and working methods of EASA on the establishment of a high level of civil aviation safety.
The future evaluation will look at the effectiveness with which the EASA has carried out its work, the relevance of its interventions, their coherence and the added value of these interventions compared to those carried out by Member States independently.
The future evaluation, which covers a period from August 2018 to the end of 2022, will also look at cost-effectiveness and the proportionality of actual costs to benefits.
In carrying out the assessment, the Commission will consult with key stakeholders, including Member States, their national aviation authorities, other competent authorities, aircraft manufacturers and aeronautical product producers and suppliers, airlines and flight personnel.
This call for papers will close on 19 May.
