The performance targets concerning the key performance areas of capacity and cost-efficiency, listed in Annex I, and the appropriate measures included in the revised FABEC performance plan submitted by Switzerland pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 549/2004, as incorporated into the Agreement, are not adequate in respect to the Union-wide performance targets for the second reference period set out in Implementing Decision 2014/132/EU.
Switzerland, as regards FABEC, shall take corrective measures regarding its performance targets in the key performance areas of capacity and cost-efficiency, taking account of the suggestion set out in Annex II.
This Decision is addressed to the Swiss Confederation.

ANNEX II SUGGESTION FOR CORRECTIVE MEASURES The following suggestion for corrective actions in the area of cost-efficiency can be implemented in the short run, taking into account the interdependencies with the remaining key performance areas as well as investment capabilities. Suggestion for corrective measures: Traffic: In July 2015, compared to the information provided in the initial performance plan, Switzerland already revised upwards the traffic planned over RP2 (by + 3,5 % on average) bringing the planned traffic forecast between the low and the base-case STATFOR February 2015 scenario. However, based on actual 2015 traffic and the latest forecast provided by STATFOR (February 2016), it is suggested that the planned traffic be further revised upwards so as to reflect the latest available information. Adjusting the planned traffic for 2018 and 2019 would result, for example, in an en route determined unit cost trend over the second reference period of – 2,3 % per year which is closer to the Union-wide trend (– 3,3 % per year) and an en route determined unit cost trend over the combined period of the first and the second reference period of – 1,4 % per year which is closer to the Union-wide target (– 1,7 % per year).
