Annex 17 — Security Foreword
1/8/97 (vi)
Contracting States are also invited to extend such
notification to any differences from the Recommended
Practices contained in this Annex, and any amendment thereto,
when the notification of such differences is important for the
safety of air navigation.
Attention of States is also drawn to the provisions of
Annex 15 related to the publication of differences between
their national regulations and practices and the related ICAO
Standards and Recommended Practices through the
Aeronautical Information Service, in addition to the obligation
of States under Article 38 of the Convention.
Promulgation of information.
Information relating to the
establishment and withdrawal of and changes to facilities,
services and procedures affecting aircraft operations provided
according to the Standards and Recommended Practices
specified in this Annex should be notified and take effect in
accordance with Annex 15.
Use of the text of the Annex in national regulations.
The
Council, on 13 April 1948, adopted a resolution inviting the
attention of Contracting States to the desirability of using in
their own national regulations, as far as practicable, the precise
language of those ICAO Standards that are of a regulatory
character and also of indicating departures from the Standards,
including any additional national regulations that were
important for the safety or regularity of air navigation.
Wherever possible, the provisions of this Annex have been
written in such a way as would facilitate incorporation,
without major textual changes, into national legislation.
General information
An Annex is made up of the following component parts, not all
of which, however, are necessarily found in every Annex; they
have the status indicated:
1.—
Material comprising the Annex proper:
a)
Standards
and
Recommended Practices
adopted by
the Council under the provisions of the Convention.
They are defined as follows:
Standard:
Any specification for physical charac-
teristics, configuration, matériel, performance,
personnel or procedure, the uniform application of
which is recognized as necessary for the safety or
regularity of international air navigation and to which
Contracting States will conform in accordance with
the Convention; in the event of impossibility of
compliance, notification to the Council is compulsory
under Article 38 of the Convention.
Recommended Practice:
Any specification for
physical characteristics, configuration, matériel,
performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform
application of which is recognized as desirable in the
interests of safety, regularity or efficiency of
international air navigation, and to which Contracting
States will endeavour to conform in accordance with
the Convention.
b)
Appendices
comprising material grouped separately
for convenience but forming part of the Standards
and Recommended Practices adopted by the Council.
c)
Definitions
of terms used in the Standards and
Recommended Practices which are not self-
explanatory in that they do not have accepted
dictionary meanings. A definition does not have an
independent status but is an essential part of each
Standard and Recommended Practice in which the
term is used, since a change in the meaning of the
term would affect the specification.
2.—
Material approved by the Council for publication in
association with the Standards and Recommended Practices:
a)
Forewords
comprising historical and explanatory
material based on the action of the Council and
including an explanation of the obligations of States
with regard to the application of the Standards and
Recommended Practices ensuing from the
Convention and the Resolution of Adoption.
b)
Introductions
comprising explanatory material
introduced at the beginning of parts, chapters or
sections of the Annex to assist in the understanding
of the application of the text.
c)
Notes
included in the text, where appropriate, to give
factual information or references bearing on the
Standards or Recommended Practices in question,
but not constituting part of the Standards or
Recommended Practices.
d)
Attachments
comprising material supplementary to
the Standards and Recommended Practices, or
included as a guide to their application.
This Annex has been adopted in five languages — English,
Arabic, French, Russian and Spanish. Each Contracting State
is requested to select one of those texts for the purpose of
national implementation and for other effects provided for in
the Convention, either through direct use or through translation
into its own national language, and to notify the Organization
accordingly.
The following practice has been adhered to in order to
indicate at a glance the status of each statement:
Standards
have been printed in light face roman;
Recommended Practices
have been printed in light face italics, the status being
indicated by the prefix
Recommendation
;
Notes
have been
printed in light face italics, the status being indicated by the
prefix
Note
.
Any reference to a portion of this document which is
identified by a number includes all subdivisions of that portion.
