The Civil Aviation (Canadian Navigation Services) (Amendment) Regulations 1995

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Civil Aviation (Canadian Navigation Services) Regulations 1994 (“the Principal Regulations”) as follows:

1.  In respect of each flight between any point in North America and any point outside North America in the course of which the aircraft makes use of air navigation services provided by or on behalf of the Government of Canada within the Gander Flight Information Region, other than a flight described in regulation 4(1)(d) of the Principal Regulations, the charge is increased from $129.44 Canadian to $142.10 Canadian.

2.  In respect of each flight between any two points one of which is in Europe (including Iceland) or Greenland in the course of which the aircraft makes use of air navigation services provided by the Edmonton Area Control Centre, other than a flight described in regulation 4(1)(d) of the Principal Regulations, the charge is increased from $92.02 Canadian to $209.00 Canadian.

3.  The power conferred by regulation 6 of the Principal Regulations to sell aircraft is expressed to be subject to the provisions of the regulations which follow it. This is because paragraph 2(1)(c) of Schedule 2 to the Principal Regulations provides for the relevant notice to indicate that sale may take place either within a 56 day period or within 21 days of the date the notice is served, whichever is the later.

Charges under the Regulations are payable to the Civil Aviation Authority which is required to remit them to the Government of Canada.
