Thanks Wombat, Nice to have someone around who knows their way around. (5) Subregulation (1) does not apply to a person:
(a) who is in a part of the sterile area that is
generally accessible to passengers or the public generally; or
(b) who is a passenger and:
(i) is boarding or disembarking from an aircraft
by means of an aerobridge; or
(ii) is boarding or disembarking from an aircraft
in the secure area and is moving reasonably directly between the aircraft and
the terminal building.
So your P2 can head for the bar while you stand in the sun copping an
infringement notice. Only at the wrong time of day though.

What are the penalties/sanctions if you flop on a RPT aerodrome in a non

and laziness to research.
If you are in a security area of a security controlled aerodrome you must
either (a) wear your ASIC, or (b) be escorted by someone who is wearing their
ASIC.
There is a list of security controlled aerodromes at
http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/transport/security/aviation/files/List_of_Airport_Classifications_23082013.pdf
The criteria for each category of airport are in the Aviation Security
Regulations 2005 - a copy is on the Comlaw web site at page 58 (regulation
3.01B) of http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2013C00204
The rules on display of an ASIC are:
3.03 Requirement to display ASICs in secure areas
(1) Subject to subregulations (4), (4A) and (5), regulations 3.05
to 3.09 and subregulations 3.18(2) and 3.26(2):
(a) a person in the airside security zone of a security
controlled airport must properly display a valid red ASIC; and
(b) a person in a secure area (other than the airside
security zone) of such an airport must properly display either a valid red ASIC
or a valid grey ASIC.
Penalty: 5 penalty units.
Note 1: The requirement in subregulation (1) applies to a person who is
accessing parts of the sterile area not generally accessible to passengers or
the public.
Note 2: For properly displaying, see regulation 1.04; for valid, see
regulation 1.05; for secure area, see regulation 1.03.
Note 3: A person who properly displays a valid VIC or TAC, and is
supervised by a person who properly displays a valid ASIC, need not display a
valid ASIC—see regulation 3.09.
(2) To avoid doubt, the obligations in subregulation (1) apply to
crew.
(3) A contravention of subregulation (1) is an offence of strict
liability.
(4) Subregulation (1) does not apply in relation to a security
controlled airport from or to which no regular public transport operation
operates.
(4A) At a security controlled airport from or to which no screened
air service operates, paragraphs (1)(a) and (b) apply only during traffic
periods.
(4B) To avoid doubt, there is no requirement that a person display a
VIC or TAC in the secure area of an airport referred to in subregulation (4A)
other than during traffic periods.
(5) Subregulation (1) does not apply to a person:
(a) who is in a part of the sterile area that is
generally accessible to passengers or the public generally; or
(b) who is a passenger and:
(i) is boarding or disembarking from an aircraft
by means of an aerobridge; or
(ii) is boarding or disembarking from an aircraft
in the secure area and is moving reasonably directly between the aircraft and
the terminal building.
the traffic period is the time from 2 hours before the scheduled arrival of an
RPT aircraft until 2 hours after it departs, and the airside security zone is
only within a specified area of the aerodrome.
Also note the exclusions in 4, 4A and 4B.
5 penalty units means a court can impose a fine of up to $550, and there is a
$110 fixed penalty notice scheme in existence. If you get 3 fixed penalty
notices you can lose your ASIC for between 1 and 2 years.
All really designed to screen out terrorists and people inadvertently carrying
dangerous goods on aeroplanes in passenger services, but making life difficult
for people with legitimate business and recreational activity related to
aviation.
Hope this helps some of you work out what is and what is not required - I make
no comment on the appropriateness or otherwise of the rules - just identifying
what they are!
Wombat
