THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 549/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10 March 2004 laying down the framework for the creation of the single European sky (the framework Regulation) as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1070/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and in particular Article 11 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 549/2004 provides that a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions is set up. For the detailed functioning of the performance scheme the Commission should adopt implementing rules.
(2) The performance scheme should contribute to sustainable development of the air transport system by improving the overall efficiency of air navigation services across the key performance areas of safety, environment, capacity and cost-efficiency, in line with the Performance Framework of the European Air Traffic Management (ATM) Master Plan, while having due regard to the overriding safety objectives.
(3) Regulation (EC) No 550/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10 March 2004 on the provision of air navigation services in the single European sky (the service provision Regulation) as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1070/2009 provides for the establishment of a charging scheme and common projects to implement the European ATM Master Plan. Both, the charging scheme and the common projects are integral to the successful implementation of the performance scheme.
(4) Pursuant to Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 549/2004, this Regulation should apply to the air traffic management network functions referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 551/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the organisation and use of the airspace in the single European sky (the airspace Regulation) as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1070/2009.
(5) The Commission may be assisted in implementing the performance scheme by a Performance Review Body. This body should be able to give independent advice to the Commission in all areas that influence the performance of air navigation services and network functions.
(6) In view of the fact that national supervisory authorities have a key role to play in the implementation of the performance scheme, Member States should ensure that they are in a position to fulfil effectively their responsibilities.
(7) In order to guarantee long-term improvements towards the high-level societal goals, as reflected in the European ATM Master Plan, the performance scheme should be operated with a view going beyond a single reference period.
(8) The performance scheme should address air navigation services through a gate-to-gate approach, including en route and terminal air navigation services with a view to improving the overall performance of the network.
(9) The performance scheme should provide for indicators and binding targets in all key performance areas with required safety levels fully achieved and maintained.
(10) When adopting Union-wide performance targets for a reference period, the Commission should take due account of the level of performance achieved in the previous reference period(s).
(11) Given the strong links between the different key performance areas, the interdependencies between performance targets, having regard to the overriding safety objectives, should be duly taken into account in the preparation and monitoring of the performance scheme.
(12) Performance plans should be established at the level of functional airspace blocks showing, for reasons of transparency, the contribution of each air navigation service provider within a functional airspace block in reaching the targets, monitored at the most appropriate level.
(13) Performance plans should describe the measures, such as incentive schemes, aimed at stakeholders to improve performance at all levels. Due to its overriding nature, safety should not be subject to incentives.
(14) In order that views of stakeholders are heard, effective consultations should take place at national, functional airspace block and Union level.
(15) In circumstances unforeseeable at the moment of adoption of the performance plans, and which are both insurmountable and beyond the control of the Member States and the entities subject to the performance targets, the establishment of appropriate alert mechanisms should allow the implementation of appropriate actions aiming at preserving the safety requirements as well as continuity in the provision of service, which may include the revision of Union-wide or local performance targets.
(16) Civil-military cooperation and coordination are of the utmost importance in achieving the objectives of the performance scheme, having due regard to military mission effectiveness.
(17) The performance scheme should be without prejudice to the provisions of the Regulation (EC) No 549/2004 aiming at safeguarding essential security or defence policy interests.
(18) Specific and measurable key performance indicators should be selected, on the basis of which responsibility for achieving the performance targets can be assigned. The associated targets should be achievable, realistic and time-bound, and aim at effectively steering the sustainable performance of air navigation services.
(19) The implementation of binding performance targets supported by incentives of a financial nature requires an appropriate link with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 391/2013 of 3 May 2013 laying down a common charging scheme for air navigation services.
(20) The key performance indicators and performance targets must be established and implemented in line with the safety objectives and standards laid down in Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and its implementing rules together with the measures taken by the Union to achieve and maintain these objectives.
(21) The Commission should assess the performance plans and targets and establish their consistency with and adequate contribution to the Union-wide targets and the overall performance of the European ATM network. If this consistency and adequate contribution cannot be established, the Commission should ask for the performance plan(s) and target(s) to be revised and/or corrective measures to be taken.
(22) During the reference periods an effective performance monitoring process, including data collection and dissemination, should be put in place to ensure that the evolution of performance allows reaching the targets and if necessary introducing corrective measures.
(23) When, on the basis of monitoring results, the Commission has substantial evidence that initial data, assumptions and rationales underlying the setting of initial targets are no longer valid, the Commission may decide to revise the Union-wide performance targets or allow, upon request of a Member State, that local targets may be revised.
(24) The execution of network functions should be subject to performance targets. Therefore, this Regulation should apply to the Network Manager established in accordance with Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EU) No 677/2011 of 7 July 2011 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of air traffic management (ATM) network functions and amending Regulation (EU) No 691/2010. Commission Regulation (EU) No 677/2011 should be amended accordingly.
(25) Commission Regulation (EU) No 691/2010 of 29 July 2010 laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions and amending Regulation (EC) No 2096/2005 laying down common requirements for the provision of air navigation services, Article 26 of Commission Regulation (EU) No 677/2011, and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1216/2011 of 24 November 2011 amending Commission Regulation (EU) No 691/2010 laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions, should be repealed with effect of 1 January 2015.
(26) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Single Sky Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

With regard to Malta, the alert threshold set for variations between planned and actual traffic, laid down in the performance plan of BLUEMED FAB, was reached and significantly exceeded for the year 2015. Actual traffic in 2015 was 35,2 % above planned. As a result of the closure of the Libyan Flight Information Region (FIR), East-West traffic which used to overfly Libya started to transit across the Malta FIR. The geopolitical situation in Syriaand Iraq, security issues over the Sinai Peninsula and capacity issues in the Nicosia FIR and Athens FIR changed the traffic flows to and from the Mid

With regard to Bulgaria, the alert threshold set for variations between planned and actual traffic, laid down in the performance plan of DANUBE FAB, was also reached for the year 2015. Actual traffic in 2015 was 22,7 % above planned. The unavailability of flight planning of major portions of the Eastern part of the Ukrainian airspace and of the Black Sea created significant shifts in traffic flows. Although it occurred in 2014, this crisis lasted longer and had further reaching implications for traffic in the Bulgarian airspace than originally foreseen. The traffic flows in Bulgarian airspace

In addition, the cost assumptions of Bulgaria, in particular in relation to staffing, laid down in the performance plan of DANUBE FAB, are no longer valid in view of the increase in traffic and the upcoming opening of a new airport in Turkey which requires changes in Bulgarian airspace. It is therefore considered that the initial data, assumptions and rationales, as regards costs, underlying the setting of the initial targets in the key performance area of cost-efficiency are no longer valid and that conditions of point (a) of Article 17(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 390/2013 have been
