EU airports set for efficiency drive
The European Commission on Wednesday tabled a proposal for full-fledged reforms of airports in the European Union, saying they have “a vital role to play” in making the European economy more competitive.
The reform package includes a proposal for new rules on airport charges; a paper on capacity, efficiency and safety; and a report on the handling of ground services. “Until now European airports have been faced with diverse regulatory, commercial and external challenges regarding issues such as capacity, financing and the environment,” said Jacques Barrot, the EU’s Transport Commissioner. “The aim of these new measures is to offer a common set of rules to be applied and enforced uniformly throughout Europe."
