EXCHANGE OF NOTES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF CANADA AND THE GOVERNMENT OF NEW ZEALAND CONCERNING ROUTE SCHEDULE

I

The Minister of Transport of Canada to the Minister of Transport of New Zealand

OTTAWA, September 4, 1985

JLE-1135

The Honourable Richard Prebble,
Minister of Transport of New Zealand.

Sir,

I have the honour to refer to the Air Transport Agreement between Canada and New Zealand of September 4, 1985 and to propose the following supplementary agreement regarding the capacity which may be offered by the designated airlines of Canada and New Zealand (the Contracting Parties).

A designated airline of each Contracting Party may commence a weekly return flight in accordance with the route schedule with aircraft of up to B747-200 capacity from 1 November 1985. Each designated airline shall be permitted to introduce a second weekly service from 1 June 1986. Before that date the Aeronautical Authorities of both Contracting Parties shall consult on the operation of the agreed services.

Unless agreement is reached by the designated airlines on subsequent adjustments to capacity, such further adjustments shall be the subject of consultations between the Aeronautical Authorities as may be required from time to time taking into account the provisions of Article XI of the Agreement. Either Contracting Party may call for consultations at any time to review the traffic and capacity justification on the agreed services.

I have the further honour to propose that this Note, which is equally authentic in English and French, and your reply confirming the acceptability of these proposals to the Government of New Zealand, shall constitute an agreement between our two Governments which shall enter into force on the date of your reply.

Accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.

Don Mazankowski

Minister of Transport
