How will the CAA cope with the increased number of ATOL licences?
The CAA acknowledges that there is potentially a significant rise in the number of holders of ATOL licences. It has no plans to increase its resource and therefore proposes to: • Introduce a simplified ATOL procedure for small organisers; • Introduce a “franchise” scheme so that members of a trade association who has had its procedures approved by the CAA can easily obtain an ATOL licence. There are limited details in the consultation paper of how this is intended to operate.
