TAAAF calls for Review of CASA Reform Progress

22 Feb 2016

The Australian Aviation Associations Forum (TAAAF) has called for David Forsyth to be reappointed to review the progress of aviation safety regulation reform.

In a statement released today, TAAAF stated that they were optimistic about the new era of co-operation emerging between the Civil Aviation Safety Authority and the aviation community, but that the process of reform needed to be faster.

"At its recent meeting in Canberra, TAAAF expressed optimism that a new and more positive aviation regulatory philosophy is emerging, leading to a regulatory partnership between industry and government," the statement said.

"TAAAF expressed concern at the lack of progress in the effective implementation of the Forsyth Report (the Aviation Safety Regulatory Review) and would support the reappointment of Mr David Forsyth to conduct a review of progress and make further recommendations.

"The Forsyth Review identified significant cultural change was required within CASA and TAAAF continues to encourage and support the CASA Board developing strategic policies in cooperation with the Forum."

TAAAF will formulate a set of aviation policy recommendations it says will be sent to every member of parliament prior to the upcoming 2016 Federal Election.

TAAAF Statement puts Minister on Notice

27 Feb 2015

A statement released today has made it clear to Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss that The Australian Aviation Associations Forum (TAAAF) is not pleased with the pace of reform at CASA.

TAAAF has strongly encouraged the Minister for Infrastructure, the new Board of CASA and the new Director of Aviation Safety (DAS) of CASA Mark Skidmore to "urgently embrace reform and pursue a fundamental improvement in aviation in Australia."

The TAAAF statement noted that "future of aviation in Australia is starting to look promising – provided that politicians, the Department of Infrastructure and aviation agency heads act now."

Forum participants called on the Minister to finalise his letter of intent to direct CASA and the CASA Board on a new path of co-operation with the aviation community to "build a more vibrant and innovative industry that is not shackled by out-moded regulation or handicapped by red tape."

TAAAF members made reiterated their enthusiasm for reform and expressed hope that the Federal Government would take a systematic approach to improving the regulator's culture in line with the industry-endorsed recommendations that came out of the ASRR (Forsyth) Report.

The call comes only days after Skidmore announced his intent to introduce just culture to CASA
