THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF
THE EUROPEAN UNION,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community, and in particular Article 80(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Article 1

The following Article 10a is inserted in Council Regulation
(EEC) No 95/93:

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social

It shall apply from [. . .]

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly
applicable in all Member States.

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article
251 of the Treaty,

Whereas:

(1) The terrorist attacks of 11 September in the United States
and the political developments that followed those events
seriously affected the air transport operations of air carriers
and resulted in a significant drop in demand during the
remainder of the summer 2001 and winter 2001/2002
scheduling season.

(2) In order to make sure that

the non-utilisation of slots
allocated for those seasons does not cause operators to
lose their entitlement to those slots, it appears necessary
to provide clearly and unambiguously that those scheduling
seasons were adversely affected by the terrorist attacks of
11 September 2001.

(3) Council Regulation (EEC) No 95/93 of 18 January 1993 on
common rules for the allocation of slots at Community
airports (1) should therefore be accordingly amended,
