1.1.8 Aviation Security Oversights The Aviation Security baseline of zero (O) acts of unlawful interference was recorded for the year 2013/2014.

The review of documents was done as planned. The objective of reviewing the documents was to asses continued adequacy of the documents, compliance with current version of ICAO Annex 17 and ICAO Doc 8973 (Security Manual for safeguarding International Civil Aviation against acts of unlawful Interference. The reviewed document includes: i. AVSEC Programme namely as the National Civil Aviation Security Programme (NCASP) ii. National Civil Aviation Security Quality Control Programme (NCASQCP) iii. National Civil Aviation Security Training Programme (NCASTP), iv. Aviation Security Inspectors Manual (ASIM). The oversight checklist for airport, aircraft audit, Inspection and test was also reviewed and amended to include. 8

The AVSEC Unit also developed draft guidelines for screening of diplomat and diplomatic bags which is forwarded to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation for consideration and adoption. Furthermore, 10 Airport security programme 5 Airline security proramme, 1 Regulated agent, 1 Ground handling and 1 Catering Agent Security programmes was reviewed and Approved.

A total number of 75 security oversights were conducted in 2013/2014 compared to 73 conducted in 2012/2013. These oversights involves the audits, follow up inspections and tests tasks of airports, aircrafts, catering, handling agents and regulated agents security operations. The oversight helps operators to identify security deficiencies. However failure to provide corrective action plan (CAPs) timely and where provided implementation challenges lead to huge finance requirement

Twenty five (25) Airport security committee meetings were held and the minutes were brought to the Authority for records and references. During the period the National Civil Aviation Security Committee Meeting(NCASC) was held four times as required. The meeting contributed in resolving security concerns by operators.

In 2013/2014 a total number of 273 screeners were interviewed and issued with certificate compared to 153 issued/ renewed in 2012/2013 being an increase of 78%

1.1.9 AERODROMES AND ANS INSPECTORATE

1.1.9.1 Description of Activities

The Aerodromes and ANS inspectorates continued to conduct its traditional safety oversight activities including, ANS system, certification and licensing of aerodromes, continuous surveillance, evaluation of obstacles/Instrument Approach Procedures and adhoc inspections and coordination with CAMs in conducting oversight inspections in the regions. In addition, ANS/AGA participated in the development of Draft Civil Aviation (Aviation Environmental Protection) Regulations in collaboration with the Ministry of Transport and TCAA Legal and Air Transport units. ANS/AGA participated in the USOAP CMA CSA Audit including pre audit preparations, on site and post audit activities. On the other hand, the Aerodromes and Air Navigation section continued with implementation of the State Safety Programme (SSP) by conducting its 5th meeting during the year including collection of data for developing State safety occurrence database, development of relevant technical guidance material and conduct amendment of aerodromes regulations. In summary, the activities that have been conducted are as tabulated below:

2.0 ECONOMIC REGULATION

2.1 Air Transport Regulation During the financial year 2013/2014, the process to review the ground handling regulations was completed and the Tanzania Civil Aviation (Ground Handling Services) Regulations, 2012 were printed and accordingly promulgated.

Furthermore, following experienced implementation impediments of legislations, the Authority is at its final stages to review the Tanzania Civil Aviation (Licensing of Air Services) Regulations, 2006. The review is expected to be completed during the financial year 2014/2015.

2.2 Licensing of air and ground handling services

During the year under review, the Board held two (2) Licensing Board Meetings (in November 2013 and May 2014) and considered a total of fifty (50) and eleven (11) applications for air and ground handling services respectively, as detailed below:

2.2.2 Coordination of facilitation of Air Transport During the period under review, two National Air Transport Facilitation (National FAL) Committee meetings and two East African consultations (East African FAL) meetings on air transport were held.

The 35th and 36th National FAL meetings were held in Mbeya and Bukoba in November 2013 and April 2014 respectively. Similarly, the 35th and 36th East African FAL meetings were held in Nakuru, Kenya and Bagamoyo, Tanzania in December 2013 and May 2014 respectively.

2.3 Statistical Reports The Statistical Report for 2013 is underway, expected to be ready by November, 2014. The four (4) quarterly Statistical reports were issued in August 2013, November 2013, February 2014 and May 2014 respectively.

2.3.1 Traffic Performance During the year international aircraft movements decreased to 38,975 compared to 40,426 movements occurred in the previous year recording a decrease of 4.8%. International passengers uplifted decreased to 1,892,958 passengers from 2,010,240 passengers recorded in the previous year, which is 5.8% decrease.

The decrease in international traffic both aircraft movements and passengers, a number of factors lie behind, including Precision Air Services Plc suspending most of its regional routes after facing financial problems. Other reasons for traffic decrease included reduced frequencies by international carriers, e.g Rwandair suspended operations to Mwanza from Kigali and Air Uganda stopped operations to Dar Es Salaam after ICAO faulted its Air Operator Certificate (AOC).

International cargo handled decreased by 4.9%, from 27,631 tons in 2012/13 to 26,279 tons in 2013/14. There has been a decreasing trend of importation of telecom equipment and medicines for the past two years. Relinquish of British Airways operated flights to Dar Es Salaam has also contributed to this decline. 18

Domestic aircraft movements on the other hand decreased by 4.8%, from 202,319 movements in 2012/13 to 192,684 movements in 2013/14. However, the corresponding domestic passengers recorded a 14.5% increase from 2,420,922 passengers in 2012/13 to 2,771,022 passengers in 2013/14.

The decrease in aircraft movements and at the same time increased passengers traffic resulted from introduction of services by Fastjet Airlines; the Airline uses larger bodied aircrafts (Airbus) which are conveniently supporting massive passenger carrying capacity with fewer movements. The airline has gained momentum and grabbed market share to other airlines on domestic major routes including Dar – Mwanza, Dar – Arusha/Kilimanjaro and Dar – Mbeya. Introduction of new routes with schedule services by some airlines (Auric Air Services, Flightlink etc) to cater for unserved destinations like Mpanda, Iringa, Dodoma, Songea and Katavi also contributed to domestic passenger traffic increase.

Domestic cargo increased from 2,240.37 tons in 2012/13 to 2,653 tons in 2013/14, equivalent to 18.4% increase. The increase was caused by transportation within the country mining and petroleum/gas exploration equipment.

Overall traffic performance of the industry recorded a decrease of 4.6% in aircraft movements, from 242,745 in 2012/13 to 231,659 movements in 2013/14.
