SG, New Zealand ink deal on aviation maintenance, repairs to enhance safety

The agreement will also reduce duplicative regulatory audits.

Aviation authorities signed a technical agreement on aircraft maintenance and repairs to improve safety oversight and cut regulatory costs.

In a joint statement, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and the Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand (CAA NZ) announced that they will mutually accept approvals on maintenance, repair, and overhaul of aircraft and its components issued by the civil aviation authorities.

“This will enhance safety oversight while minimising duplicative regulatory audits and reducing associated regulatory costs for MRO organisations in Singapore and New Zealand,” read the statement.

There will also be closer collaboration between CAAS and CAA NZ to back the development of aviation industries of both nations due to the revival of travelling and loosening of border restrictions.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
