ABOUT CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY
Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority is a Public sector
autonomous body working under the Federal Government of
Pakistan through the Ministry of Defense. It was established on
7th December, 1982 as an autonomous body. Prior to its
creation, a Civil Aviation Department in the Ministry of Defense
used to manage the civil aviation related activities.
The day of 7th December has significance, as it coincides
with the date of creation of International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) in 1944 as a result of the famous Chicago
Convention. Incidentally, the United Nations have declared 7th
December as the International Civil Aviation day and celebrated
as such every year all over the World.
All kinds of Civil Aviation related activities are performed by
CAA including the regulatory, air traffic services, airport

levels for bridging communication gaps between different
hierarchical levels of the organization has been taken.

As a result of the Restructuring process, the fundamental
organization structure has been balanced to focus on three core
areas namely Regulatory, Air Navigations Services, and Airport

various Corporate functions of the organization.
The restructuring process has helped Pakistan Civil Aviation
Authority to fully focus on:-
Strengthening its safety and security oversight role as per
International Civil Aviation Organization requirements and
standards.
To facilitate growth of the infrastructure development
(Airports and Airport Cities) on a fast-track basis. Private
sector participation in the process is also being encouraged.
Enhanced Regulatory and air space management capabilities.
Moreover, emphasis is being laid on commercialization of its
assets and land with improved customer / passenger service
standards, benchmarked with top performing international
airports.
Development of a New Aviation Policy for the country in
consultation with the Ministry of Defence, Planning
Commission, World bank, Airlines, and Aviation Experts
(Expected to be considered by the Cabinet for approval

Investing in Human resource development through
structured approach with particular focus on quality of
people and enhancing their professional capability.

Security, Safety, and Environment (HSSE), Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR), Ethics Management Program, Customer
feedback mechanism at the airports, Employees Performance
Management system, benchmarking, outsourcing of non-core
and wasteful activities, etc. Recently, I have embarked upon a
challenging phased program to acquire international standards
of Integrated Management System (IMS) in CAA during which

Management System), ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental

ABOUT FINANCE Department
Finance department is one of the biggest departments in
CAA, which is responsible for provision of efficient and effective
accounting/budget. The feasibility of extending financial,
administrative, technical facilities is control by this department.
The duties and functions of a typical finance department
can be classified into two generic categories. The first category
is PLANNING and the second function is CONTROLLING. These
activities are inter-related and inseparable because if there is
no planning these will not be any control. Therefore, planning
and control move together.
Planning refers to the activities, which bridge the gap
from the starting point to the terminal point. Planning in the
finance department under review refers to the activities of
Cash Flow and Budget preparation. These are the major
activities (planning) in any such department.
