The Dubai government's move to set up the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) will help bring transparency to the emirate's aviation industry, analysts say, as the restructuring will separate regulatory functions of the authority from the operation of the airport.
"This has long been expected. The Department of Civil Aviation, being the government authority, has also been the operator of the airport," Robert Ziegler, principal at A.T. Kearney (UAE) Limited, told Gulf News yesterday.
The Dubai Government yesterday restructured the civil aviation sector by establishing Dubai DCAA, replacing the Department of Civil Aviation, according to a government statement. |
