ANNEX TO THE LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION


STATEMENT BY THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMISSION

The outcome of the work of ICAO on the implementation of the global market-based measure is key for its effectiveness and for the future contribution of the aviation sector to the achievement of the objectives under the Paris Agreement. It is important that ICAO member states, aircraft operators and civil society continue to be engaged in this work of ICAO. It will be necessary in this context for ICAO to act in full transparency and to reach out to all stakeholders to inform them about progress and decisions in a timely manner.
