Maintenance data
1.12 Maintenance data
1.12.1 The CAMO may approve new procedures, or changes to existing procedures, for carrying out particular maintenance on an aircraft or an aeronautical product, if:
the maintenance is included, or is to be included, in the maintenance program for an aircraft for which the CAMO provides continuing airworthiness management services; and
there is no existing maintenance data that includes the procedure for carrying out the maintenance, or the procedure in the existing maintenance data is inadequate or inappropriate for the maintenance; and
the CAMO's approval permits it to approve the maintenance program, or a variation to the maintenance program, for the aircraft or product; and
the new procedures, or changes to existing procedure do not make any damage or wear limits, or any inspection or test parameters, less restrictive than those included in the existing maintenance data for the aircraft or the aeronautical product, unless the relevant existing maintenance data was originally created by the CAMO.
1.12.2 The maintenance procedure must be approved as part of the maintenance program, or changes to the maintenance program, for the aircraft in accordance with Subpart 42.J of CASR 1998.
1.12.3 The CAMO must ensure that the maintenance program employee, who approves the maintenance program, has assessed the procedure to ensure that it provides for safe maintenance practice, airworthy aircraft and serviceable aeronautical product.
1.12.4 The CAMO must ensure the new or changed procedure is:
clearly identified as maintenance data created, or changed, by the CAMO; and
traceable to the approval under which the data is created or changed.
