260. Notes the Commission replies on the progress made in implementing the Galileo project: four Galileo In-Orbit Validation (IOV) satellites were successfully launched in 2011 and 2012, the Galileo In-Orbit Validation phase was successfully concluded in 2014, the system design, the performance targets and the baseline for system operation were successfully confirmed, the ground infrastructure, with many ground stations worldwide, has been completed for the initial operations, the Galileo Search-and-Rescue capability of the IOV-satellites was successfully demonstrated, the launch of two satellites (no. 5 and 6) on 22 August 2014 resulted ...[+++] in an injection of these satellites into incorrect orbit, and since December 2014 the satellites have been gradually moved to a more favourable orbit to allow their best possible use, and the testing of the satellites' navigation payload is on-going; expects to be informed about additional costs for these unforeseen measures;

While the legal authority for ground search and rescue does rest with the provincial and territorial governments, the Canadian Forces, as a partner in the search and rescue network, nevertheless, reviewed the protocol surrounding Canadian Forces participation in this search.

"Aviation Flights which arrive at or depart from an airport situated in the territory of a Member State to which the Treaty applies. This activity shall not include: (a) military flights performed by military aircraftflights by customs and police services, flights for search and rescue purposes as well as medical and disaster relief including fire-fighting which are authorised by the appropriate competent authority; (b) flights for humanitarian purposes under a mandate from the United Nations or its subsidiary organisations and Emergency Medical Service flights, if the aircraft operator has been instructed to perform them (e.g. by the U ...[+++]nited Nations) or holds the necessary official authorisation (licence for such EMS flights under its Air Operator's Certificate); (c) flights terminating at the aerodrome from which the aircraft has taken off and during which no intermediate landing has been made; (d) training flights performed exclusively for the purpose of obtaining a licence, or a rating in the case of cockpit flight crew where this is substantiated by an appropriate remark in the flight plan provided that the flight does not serve for the transport of passengers and/or cargo ; (e) flights performed exclusively for the purpose of scientific research or for the purpose of checking, testing, qualifying or certifying aircraft , equipment or air-traffic-management procedures , whether airborne or ground-based; ferrying new aircraft as well as ferry flights performed by or on behalf of an aircraft owner as a consequence of the occurrence of a sudden early termination event, event of default, repossession, or similar occurrence in respect of a leasing, charter or similar arrangement ; and (f) flights performed by aircraft with a certified maximum take-off weight of less than 20 000 kg , under the condition that operators of these aircraft participate in an offset scheme which operates according to strict criteria and which must be open to external control (comparab ...
