Cargo, courier and express parcels shall only be carried by air where the following security controls have been applied: the reception, processing and handling of cargo shall be performed by properly recruited and trained staff; cargo shall be: searched by hand or physical check; or screened by x-ray equipment; or subjected to simulation chamber; or subjected to other means, both technical and bio-sensory, (e.g. sniffers, trace detectors, explosive detection dogs etc.) so as to reasonably ensure that it does not contain any prohibited article as listed in points iv and v of the Attachment, unless it has been declared and properly subjected to applicable safety measures. Where none of the above means and methods of security control can be applied owing to the nature of the consignment, the appropriate authority may specify a storage period.
