New Delhi. 26 July 2016. The ICAO conducted audit of Civil Aviation Security in India in October 2015 under their four yearly Universal Security Audit Programme – Continuous Monitoring Approach (USAP-CMA). India’s compliance with ICAO regulations has been rated at 99.25%.
The ICAO during the audit of India under its Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP) in December 2015 had asked about the steps being taken to ensure adequate number of ATS (Air Traffic Services) personnel in Airports Authority of India (AAI). In response, the risk assessment and the immediate mitigations measures already put in place by AAI to ensure adequate number of ATS personnel was communicated to ICAO who accepted the measures adopted. Thus no safety concern was raised by ICAO.
