So long as a permission is for the time being in force under this Part in respect of an airport, the airport operator shall comply with such conditions as are for the time being in force in relation to the airport by virtue of the following sections of this Part.

The CAA shall perform its functions under those sections in the manner which it considers is best calculated—
a
to further the reasonable interests of users of airports within the United Kingdom ;
b
to promote the efficient, economic and profitable operation of such airports;
c
to encourage investment in new facilities at airports in time to satisfy anticipated demands by the users of such airports; and
d
to impose the minimum restrictions that are consistent with the performance by the CAA of its functions under those sections;
and section 4 of the 1982 Act (general objectives of the CAA) shall accordingly not apply in relation to the performance by the CAA of those functions.

In performing those functions the CAA shall take into account such of the international obligations of the United Kingdom as may be notified to it by the Secretary of State for the purposes of this section.
4
The duty of an airport operator under subsection (1) to comply with any such conditions as are there mentioned shall be enforceable in accordance with sections 48 to 50 (and not otherwise).

Nothing in this Part shall be read as requiring or authorising the CAA to impose or modify any conditions in relation to an airport otherwise than on granting a permission under this Part in respect of it or while any such permission is in force.
