Art. 7 Verdrag tussen de Regering van het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden en de Regering van de Republiek Trinidad en Tobago inzake luchtdiensten tussen en via de Nederlandse Antillen en Trinidad en Tobago

1. The Parties, recognising their responsibilities under the Convention to develop international civil aviation in a safe and orderly manner, reaffirm their grave concern about acts or threats against the security of aircraft which jeopardise the safety of persons or property, adversely affect the operation of air transport, and undermine public confidence in the safety of civil aviation. To this end, each Party: reaffirms its commitment to act consistently with the provisions of the Convention on Offences and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, signed at Tokyo on September 14, 1963, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, signed at The Hague on December 16, 1970 and the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on September 23, 1971; shall require that operators of aircraft of its registry act consistently with the applicable aviation security provisions established by the International Civil Aviation Organization; and shall provide maximum aid within the limits of its resources to the other Party with a view to preventing unlawful seizure of aircraft, sabotage to aircraft, airports, and air navigation facilities, and threats to aviation security, give sympathetic consideration to any request from the other Party for special security measures for its aircraft or passengers to meet a particular threat and, when incidents or threats of hijacking or sabotage against aircraft, airports or air navigation facilities occur, assist the other Party by facilitating communications intended to terminate such incidents rapidly and safely. 2. The Aeronautical Authorities of each Party may request consultations concerning the safety and security standards and requirements maintained and administered by the other Party relating to aeronautical facilities, aircrew, aircraft and the operation of the designated airline(s). If, following such consultations, the Aeronautical Authorities of either Party find that the other Party does not effectively maintain and administer safety and security standards and requirements in these areas that are equal to or above the minimum standards which may be established pursuant to the Convention, they will notify the other Party of such findings and the steps considered necessary to bring the safety and security standards and requirements of the other Party at least to the minimum standards which may be established pursuant to the Convention, and the other Party shall take appropriate corrective action. 3. Each Party reserves the right to withhold, revoke, or limit, pursuant to Articles 2 (Grant of rights), 3 (Designation of airline(s) and operating authorization) and 4 (Revocation, suspension and imposition of conditions), the operating authorization or technical permission of an airline or airlines designated by the other Party, in the event that the other Party does not take such appropriate action within a reasonable time.
