Transport Co-ordination Act 1966

Every application for an aircraft licence shall be in writing, setting out —

the routes on which and the area in which it is intended that the aircraft is to operate; and

a description of the aircraft in respect of which the application is made; and

the maximum number of passengers to be carried at any one time, and the classes of goods to be carried, by the aircraft; and

the service proposed to be provided; and

the fares and freight rates proposed to be charged; and

such other particulars as may be prescribed.

Where the application relates to a licence required for a particular purpose of limited duration, notwithstanding subsection (1) the Minister may grant the licence without prior lodgement of the written application where he is satisfied that sufficient information has been made available to him to enable him so to do.

A licence granted pursuant to subsection (2) —

shall be deemed to take effect upon verbal notification to the applicant that a licence will issue; but

shall be deemed not to have taken effect if the written application relating thereto is not received by the Director General within 14 days of the Minister’s decision or if the information contained in the written application differs in a material particular from the information made available to the Minister prior to his decision.
