- regional safety oversight organization
- Definição1
- The objectives of an RSOO are to support the licensing, certification, authorization, approval and surveillance of civil aviation activities within its member States and improve aviation safety within the region. The aim of following a structured project management approach in the establishment of the RSOO is to ensure that, ultimately, the RSOO meets its objectives. At the same time, however, the full functionality of the RSOO will always principally depend upon the availability of resources and the commitment of member States.

- Definição2
- RSOOs vary in terms of their complexity, scope of activities and the level of authority delegated by their member States with respect to personnel licensing functions and duties. Thus, an RSOO may undertake a number of personnel licensing and certification activities, ranging from the development of a harmonized or common set of licensing regulations and operating standards and overseeing their implementation by States, to actually being directly involved in licensing, approval and certification processes.

- Definição3
- At a more complex level, an RSOO will have its mandate established by means of a constitutional charter, regulation or law clearly spelling out its objectives and the scope of its activities and responsibilities. The RSOO might be responsible for developing common licensing regulations and operating standards that have the force of law. It might also have executive powers with respect to certain licensing and certification activities such as the approval of aviation training organizations on behalf of its member States. In this case, the RSOO, as mandated by a regional legislative body, acts as a legal regulatory authority.

- Nota adicional1
- A State may decide to delegate the approval process to a regional safety oversight organization (RSOO) set up by a group of States to achieve greater commonality and regional integration of regulations and operating standards in a cost-effective manner. In this case, the delegated functions should be clearly defined in the agreement document establishing the RSOO.
- Nota adicional2
- An RSOO is expected to assist its member States in the implementation of their SSPs and more specifically, in the development of the requirements that govern how operators and other service providers identify hazards and manage safety risks. It may even be required to assist States in reviewing the safety performance of service providers. However, more than just assisting States in implementing their national programmes, the RSOO can play an important role in identifying safety hazards that are common to the region or subregion and recommending actions that will mitigate the associated risks.
