                               Explanatory memorandum
At its Plenary session of 13 January 1998 the European Parliament approved at second
reading the common position formally adopted by the Council on 9 October 1997
relating to a Council Directive aimed at amending Directive 92/14/EEC on the limitation
of the operation of aeroplanes covered by part II, Chapter 2, Volume 1 of Annex 16 to
the Convention on International Civil Aviation, second edition (1983).
The European Parliament adopted 4 amendments to the proposed text.
The Commission has accepted two amendments relating to the Annex since these are
useful technical adjustments to this Annex, which have the support of the Council.
The Commission was unable to accept the amendments concerning :
» Article 1(1) and the Annex since Saudi Arabia is included in the official international
   list of developing nations which was used in drawing up the initial Annex to Council
   Directive 92/14/EEC and its aeroplanes in the Annex meet the criteria laid down in
   Article 3 of Council Directive 92/14/EEC as amended by this Directive.
