1

The UK ETS authority must compile an aviation allocation table for the 2021-2025 allocation period as soon as reasonably practicable after 31st March 2021.

2

The aviation allocation table must contain an entry for each person with an aviation free allocation entitlement, as approved by the UK ETS authority under article 34M.

3

The person's entry must set out—

a

the person's full name and Eurocontrol Central Route Charges Office identification number;

b

the person's aviation free allocation entitlement for each scheme year in the 2021-2025 allocation period.

F34

The UK ETS authority must update the aviation allocation table to take account of any approval of the UK ETS authority under article 34Q (transfers of allocations) or article 34R (errors in aviation allocation table) F2of this Order or under article 29 of the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) Order 2021 (aviation: recalculation of aviation free allocation entitlement of certain applicants).

F34

The UK ETS authority must update the aviation allocation table to take account of any approval of the UK ETS authority under—

a

article 34M(7)—

i

of the applicant’s aviation free allocation entitlement following an application made in reliance on article 34L(7);

of an increase in a person’s aviation free allocation following a recalculation by the regulator under article 34M(6A); or

b

article 34Q (transfers of allocations) or article 34R (errors in aviation allocation table).

(See article 34T in relation to the return of allowances where the number of allowances to be allocated to a person for a scheme year is reduced after allowances for the scheme year have been allocated.)
