(1)

Experience gained with the implementation of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1998 (2) has shown the need for minor amendments to the implementing modalities of certain common basic standards on aviation security.

| (2) | Certain detailed aviation security measures should be clarified, harmonised or simplified in order to improve legal clarity, standardise the common interpretation of the relevant provisions and further ensure the best implementation of the common basic standards on aviation security. Furthermore, certain amendments have become necessary in accordance with the evolution of the threat and risk picture as well as recent developments in terms of technology. Those amendments concern automated prohibited items detection (APID) software, explosive detection systems (EDS) for cabin baggage, explosive trace detection (ETD) equipment, security scanners as well as explosive vapour detection (EVD) equipment. |
