The Civil Aviation Authority (Economic Regulation of Airports) Regulations 1986

Enforcement of compliance orders

14.—(1) Where the CAA, pursuant to section 49(9) of the Act, proposes to revoke a permission to levy airport charges, it shall serve on the airport operator notice of its proposal, together with a statement of the respects in which it appears to the CAA that the airport operator has contravened a compliance order and of the grounds on which it appears to the CAA that he is unlikely to comply with it in the immediate future.

(2) A decision to revoke a permission may be taken only by two members of the CAA after considering any written or oral representations which the airport operator has served on or made to the CAA within two months of the date of service of the notice given by the CAA pursuant to paragraph (1) of this regulation.

(3) Where an airport is managed by the same airport operator as managed it when a permission to levy airport charges was revoked, a decision again to grant a permission shall be taken only by two Members of the CAA after considering any written or oral representations served on or made to the CAA by the airport operator. If after considering any such representations it is decided not to grant a permission, the CAA shall serve on the airport operator a statement of its reasons for thinking that, if any condition corresponding to the one whose breach gave rise to the compliance order were imposed, he would not comply with it.
