CAA Nepal

  4. Major Findings • Regulations should be promulgated that specify the entity responsible for MET services and the entity responsible for regulatory oversight. • No training policy and programme : training is conducted on the ad-hoc basis. • Nepal should establish arrangements in primary legislation that enable the appropriate management and safety oversight of Annex 3 matters.
