State Safety Programme<\/h1>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Annex 19 to the Chicago Convention sets the standards for a State Safety Programme (SSP), placing the responsibility on all contracting States to implement such a programme. The State Safety Programme for the Falkland Islands is a joint effort on behalf of the Falkland Islands Civil Aviation Department (FICAD) and Air Safety Support International (ASSI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International Civil Aviation Organisation describes a SSP as an “integrated set of regulations and activities aimed at improving safety”. The SSP exists as a management system for the management of safety by the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UK also has it’s own State Safety Programme that includes responsibilities to all of the Overseas Territories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The guidance below outlines the UK\u2019s State Safety Programme (SSP) for aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It provides an overview of the UK oversight of the aviation system and defines clear roles and responsibilities across the UK, its Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It establishes a structured approach for continuous safety improvements, reinforcing the UK commitment to safeguarding the future of aviation safety, and preventing complacency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SSP is mandated by the International Civil Aviation Organization<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
