40、y ICAO. Further information on the economic situation of air transport was available in The Wrld of Civil Aviation, 1993-1996 (Circular 250-AT/102). Japan (WP/4 1) expressed certain concerns regarding the possible adverse effects of regulatory liberalization and suggested that a study be carefully c
41、onducted of the effects of liberalization. Vietnam (WP/70-information paper) provided an overview of its regulatory policies in international air transport. European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) (WP/44) called upon additional States to become parties to the International Air Services Transit Agr
42、eement (IASTA) and also provided information (WP/45-information paper) on ECACs role and work in a changing environment. Airports Council International (ACI) (WP/73) drew attention to the increasing role played by airports in air transport development and the wider economic benefits air transport se
43、rvices provided to communities and regions, and outlined its positions on various topics to be addressed by the Conference under other agenda items. International Air Transport Association (IATA) (WP/42) welcomed regulatory liberalization but emphasized the need for harmonization of regulations to a
44、void conflict and enable smooth transition. IATA also gave an overview of its positions on various topics to be addressed by the Conference. 1 .2. Discussion 1.2.1 At the outset of its work, the Conference recognized that the principles espoused in the Chicago Convention of sovereignty, non-discrimi
45、nation, interdependence, harmonization and co-operation at the global level, had served air transport well and were not at issue. In particular, the legal regulatory framework encompassed by Articles 1 (sovereignty), 5 (right of non-scheduled flights), 6 (scheduled air services), 7 (cabotage), 15 (a
46、irport and similar charges) and 96 (definitions) of the Convention remained valid and could also accommodate changes in regulatory arrangements, structures and procedures.

48、Chicago Convention and which they considered to be necessary to ensure world-wide participation in international air transport, especially for air carriers of developing countries. Report on Agenda Item 1 - 1.2.3 There was broad support for the concerns expressed by Japan in WP/41 that present exper
49、ience of liberalization had shown disbenefits as well as benefits and that, according to perspective, the former might well outweigh the latter. While many delegates indicated that they had no objection to regulatory change, liberalization, or increased competition in international air transport, they shared concerns as to the possible adverse consequences of unrestricted competition and t
