Getting the balance right in the aviation sector.

This paper is divided into four main sections: an overview of current airport regulation; an examination of how this regulation has worked in practice since it came into force in 1999; an assessment of whether the balance is right between the interests of the airport companies, the interests of airlines and the interests of the ultimate users: the travelling public of New Zealand and visitors to New Zealand and a discussion of possible options for restoring the balance.
