Thank you very much.
I move that Bill C-6, in Clause 8, be amended by adding after line 21 on page 7 the following:(c.1) safety management systems and programs that provide for(i) the appointment of an executive(A) responsible for operations and activities authorized under a certificate—issued pursuant to a regulation made under this Act—that authorizes the holder of the certificate to operate an air traffic control unit or a flight service station, and(B) accountable for the extent to which the requirements of the applicable safety management systems or programs have been met,(ii) the implementation, as a result of any risk management analysis, of the remedial action required to maintain the highest level of safety,(iii) continuous monitoring and regular assessment of the level of safety achieved, and(iv) the involvement of employees and their bargaining agents in the development and implementation of the applicable safety management system or program;
We think the addition of these provisions would help raise the highest standards of safety to better define the safety management systems and programs.
