From elsewhere:


The International Civil Aviation Organisations (ICAO) Universal Safety Oversight Audit Program (USOAP) will be taking place in Australia from 18 to 28 February 2008. USOAP comprises regular, mandatory, systematic and harmonized safety audits of member States' effective implementation of ICAO standards and recommended practices. This is Australia's first audit under the expanded USOAP that began in 2005.

The USOAP Audit team will be meeting with all relevant government agencies, including the Department of Infrastructure, ATSB, CASA, AMSA, BOM and Airservices. The audit team will be visiting Airservices head office as well as Canberra ARFF and Melbourne air traffic and tower operations. Safety Management will be the focus of the audit, led by *** ******. There will be minimal interruption to operations. All relevant staff have been made aware of the audit program.

Airservices supports the USOAP Audit as an important test that Australia's aviation safety oversight, and Airservices operations, remain world-class. Australia has a reputation as a leading aviation country and has always been a strong supporter and contributor to ICAO. The team will present initial findings at the closing session, with the final report finalised later in the year.
