Air Transport: Minister of Transport highlights importance of the Yamoussokro Decision

(Togo First) - Last Wednesday, Togo’s National Civil Aviation Agency celebrated the Yamoussokro Decision.

Placed under the theme “Plead for Laws Regulating the Yamoussokro Decision, Tools Contributing to the Good Functioning of MUTAA”, this event according to Togo Presse, aims to inform various actors of the civil aviation, about advantages derived from implementing the Yamoussokro Decision and the Single African Air Transport Market (MUTAA).

According to Marc Sondou, Director of Cabinet, Ministry of Transport, the Decision is the most notable political measure ever implemented in terms of air transport reforms in Africa. It plans the liberalization of air transport services, both regular and non-regular, in Africa, knowingly by suppressing restrictions of traffic dues. This Decision is the legal platform that enabled heads of States and governments of the African Union to create the MUTAA last January.

“The Single African Air Transport Market falls under a holistic approach and reveals the Yamoussokro Decision’s true value and significance, in an extremely competitive environment. This single market is a real driver of development and growth of transport in Africa,” Marc Sondou declared.
