This manual outlines the duties and responsibilities of ICAO Member States with respect to the establishment and management of a State aviation security oversight system. It is directed at high-level government decision makers, including appropriate authorities for aviation security, as it highlights States’ obligations as signatories to the Convention on International Civil Aviation (Chicago Convention) signed at Chicago on 7 December 1944, and provides guidance to assist States in establishing and managing an effective and sustainable State aviation security oversight system, through the implementation of the eight critical elements (CEs) of such a system. The first edition of this manual was developed by the ICAO Secretariat for the transition of the Universal Security Audit Programme (USAP) to a continuous monitoring approach (CMA) as directed under Assembly Resolution A38-15 — Consolidated statement of continuing ICAO policies related to aviation security. This second edition was developed to provide additional guidance to States on the establishment and management of an effective and sustainable State aviation security oversight system.
