GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION AT VOTE
Civilian Aircraft Accord

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.


Category: International Security


Strength: Mild


Proposed by: John Turner

Description: The World Assembly,

Acknowledging the transportation of civilians via air travel is not only vital to the international economy, but to the international community as a whole;

Realizing that command and control, and communication with civilian aircraft is vital to ensure the safety and security of those aircraft, particularly when those aircraft are in international airspace;

Concerned that some nations may intentionally avoid tracking or communicating with civilian aircraft originating from nations potentially hostile to them;

Believing it is the duty of all nations to protect the lives of innocent civilians no matter the current state of diplomacy between nations;

Thus resolving to enact a sensible policy that allows for the safe and secure operation of civilian aircraft, no matter the nation of origin;

The General Assembly hereby,

Defines a civilian aircraft as an aircraft whether private or commercial not operating under the direction of a nation's military or engaging in national security-related activities;

Requires member nations to provide at the minimum:

Tracking and communication of any civilian aircraft within the detection and communication range of that nation,

Meteorological information and inclement emergency warnings to civilian aircraft, and,

Assistance to any civilian aircraft that declares itself to be in distress within the communication range of that nation;

Urges member nations to ensure adequate security personnel are present on any civilian aircraft which is operating in or out of nations currently engaged in armed conflict, or where a credible threat to those aircraft is present;

Forbids member nations from taking military action against civilian aircraft without first warning that aircraft and permitting that aircraft to comply with instructions;

Confirming that nations shall have the sole sovereign rights and responsibilities to ensure pilots and crews are adequately trained and certified in the operation of their civilian aircraft;

Leaves to the individual member state all authority regarding regulations pertaining to equipment or training in regards to the operation of civilian aircraft.

I feel this is NOT an international issue. This is a wholly unnecessary bit of over regulation and I for one am opposed.
