The foundation of this independent authority is based upon an extensive
programme of international organisations aiming to increase the safety
of civil aviation, which is also one of the criteria of the Czech
Republic joining the European Union. The ES requirements are stated in
94/56/ES Council Directive of 21/11/1994, which provides basic
principles for investigating accidents and incidents in civil aviation.
In order to achieve the standard required by the EU, an Act no.258/2002
Sb [Sb.=Czech Republic digest of laws] came into force amending Act
no.49/1997 Sb on civil aviation, and amendment and supplement of law
no.455/1991 Sb on business [trade law], all in valid wording [further
civil aviation law].
The Institute has been established pursuant to § 55 a) of this Act. The
government of the Czech Republic by its resolution no.1006 of 14 October
2002 approved
the institute’s statutes by and
appointed Štrůbl Pavel as managing director.
