Problems of Complying with ICAO Annex 14 at Norwegian Aerodromes

In Annex 14 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation under “Applicability” it is said that:

The interpretation of some of the specifications in the Annex expressly requires the exercising of discretion, the taking of a decision or the performance of a function by the appropriate authority. In other specifications, the expression appropriate authority does not actually appear although its inclusion is implied. In both cases, the responsibility for whatever determination or action is necessary shall rest with the State having jurisdiction over the aerodrome.
