Embodiment of safety management system and occurrence-reporting requirements into Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012
AMC & GM to Part 21 — Issue 2, Amendment 16
This ED Decision complements ED Decision 2022/021/R and further amends the Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) and Guidance Material (GM) to Part 21. It provides AMC & GM to amended/introduced competent authority requirements in Part 21 on the following topics: initial certification procedures; oversight principles; oversight programme; management systems; changes to the management system; record-keeping; finding, corrective actions, observations; suspension, limitation and revocation. In addition, this ED Decision corrects editorial errors. This Decision also removes the remaining ‘AMC-ELA’ and ‘GM-ELA’ to Part 21 introduced with ED Decision 2019/003/R since they are not up to date.
The objectives of this ED Decision are to further support the implementation of the safety management system and occurrence-reporting requirements that were introduced by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/201 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/203.
