INTRODUCTION
^jrticlc 16
This i’jrticlc of the Convention on International Civil Aviation relates
to the right to search aircraft on landing or departure and to inspect
certificates and other documents proscribed by the Convention. It does not
prescribe that aircraft may not be searched or documents inspected at any
other time; but the United Kingdom Authorities vish to make it clear that
they must have this right. In the United Kingdom the pov/er in regard to
ships (Section 182 of the Customs Consolidation -ct, 18?6) is applied to^
aircraft by article 23 of Schedule VIII of the Air Naviation (Consolidation)
Order, 1923. .
1 . DEFINITIONS
1.4. It is suggested that the words "as part of its normal complement"
should bo inserted in the second line after the words "on board 1 '.
If preferred, a suitable note could be inserted in the crew
manifest (appendix l) as an alternative. In view of the pr?.ctico
of operating Companies, it is essential that the Immigrating
authorities should have knowledge of employees transported as
members of the crow on the flight in order to take u duty and
remain in this country.
1.7. It is considered that "and" should be substituted for "or" before
the words "Public Health". It is essential that all three
categories of the formalities in question should be carried
out at a Customs Airport in the United Kingdom, not one or
other of them.
1.8., 1.9., 2.9 and 12.1. If a Customs fret airport or zone should
be established in the United Kingdom, it is probable that the
United Kingdom Customs would have to maintain the right to
examine crew, passengers, baggage, cargo and stores within the
airport or zone so as to ensure sufficient Customs control to
prevent the consumption or use within the airport or zone of
cf-rgo raid stores without payment of Customs and Excise duties
and charges, and so as to see that all relative prohibitions
and restrictions were observe^. It wight further be necessary
to have some machinery for collecting trade and passenger statistics
there.
1.11 to 14. In order to protect Revenue interests, to provide for
the collection of trade statistics and to prevent illegal traffic
(c.g. in dangerous drugs) some Customs control ’would have to be
exorcised over the transit crews, passengers, cargo and stores
excepted from these definitions.
2, GENERAL PROVISIONS
2.1. It is considered that the words "until they are accepted by the
competent authority of the Member State for examination as to
their right to land" should be replaced by "until they have
been examined and "ranted leave to land".
