87X: Variation of terms and conditions of open aviation market licence

You could also call this:

“Changing the rules for your open aviation market licence”

You can change the rules of your open aviation market licence. The Secretary can do this on their own or if you ask them to. They can change existing rules, remove rules, or add new ones. They will only do this if they think it’s necessary or good for the public.

If the Secretary wants to change your licence on their own, they must tell you about it in writing at least 21 days before they do it.

If you want to change which countries or areas your licence covers, the Secretary will look at all the same things they would if you were applying for a new licence.

When the Secretary changes your licence, they will put a notice in the Gazette to let everyone know what changes were made.
