Revision by France of the public service obligation imposed in respect of scheduled air services
between Strasbourg and Vienna

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2007/C 212/10)

1.
France has decided to revise, with effect from 30 March 2008, the public service obligation imposed
pursuant to Article 4(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2408/92 of 23 July 1992 on access for Com-
munity air carriers to intra-Community air routes (1) in respect of scheduled air services between Strasbourg
and Vienna. This obligation replaces the obligation published in Official Journal of the European Union C 246
of 13 October 2006.

2.

The new public service obligation is as follows:

2.1. Frequency

The minimum level of service provided between Strasbourg and Vienna must be two round trips per
week, all year round, with one trip being on Monday and one on Thursday.

2.2. Type of aircraft used and minimum capacity provided

The minimum capacity proposed must be 250 seats per week each way.

2.3. Timetables

Timetables must coincide with parliamentary sessions, i.e. arriving at Strasbourg on Monday close to
but no later than 14.00 and leaving Strasbourg on Thursday close to but no earlier than 17.00.

2.4. Flight bookings

The flights must be marketed by means of a computerised booking system.

2.5. Continuity of service

Except in cases of force majeure, the number of flights cancelled for reasons directly attributable to the
carrier must not exceed 2 % of the number of flights scheduled in any IATA scheduling season. In
addition, the carrier must give a minimum of six months' notice before discontinuing these services.

Community carriers are hereby informed that the operation of air services without regard to the above-
mentioned public service obligation may result in administrative and/or criminal penalties.

It is felt that ESRIF should not be set up via a Commission Decision so as to preserve its independent advisory nature vis-à-vis the Commission.An independent ESRIF will enhance the co-ownership of the Joint Security Research Agenda. There is also added value in taking in the opinions of the various stakeholders (regional, national, European and industrial) on an equal footing. One of the tests of a successful outcome will be the extent to which all stakeholders accept the Joint Security Research Agenda as a basis for their own funding decisions. It is therefore mainly a question of proportionality and subsidiarity to opt for a non-Commission-created ESRIF.If the ESRIF is created, a second Communication, accompanied by a more substantial Impact Assessment, will – so the planning goes – be delivered in the second half of 2008, reacting to the outcome so far of the forum’s work.
