ARTICLE 18 PROVISION OF STATISTICS

The aeronautical authorities of one Party shall supply the aeronautical authorities of

the other Party, at their request, with such statistics as may be reasonably required

for information purposes.

ARTICLE 19 TARIFFS

1. Tariffs for international air transport operated pursuant to this Agreement shall

not be required to be filed with the aeronautical authorities of either Party.

2. The Parties acknowledge that market forces shall be the primary consideration

in the establishment of tariffs for air transportation. Without limiting the application of

general competition and consumer law in each Party, consultations may be initiated

by either Party in accordance with Article 20 for the:

a) prevention of unreasonably discriminatory tariffs or practices;

b) protection of consumers from tariffs that are unreasonably high or restrictive

because of the abuse of a dominant position or due to concerted practices

among air carriers;

c) protection of airlines from tariffs to the extent that they are artificially low

because of direct or indirect governmental subsidy or support; and

d) protection of airlines from tariffs that are artificially low, where evidence

exists as to an intent of eliminating competition.

3. Notwithstanding the above provisions, the tariffs to be charged by the

designated airline(s) of both Parties for carriage wholly within the European Union

shall be subject to European Union law, which shall be applied on a non-

discriminatory basis.

ARTICLE 20 CONSULTATIONS

1. Either Party may at any time request consultations on the implementation,

interpretation or application of this Agreement or compliance with this Agreement.
