100% Cargo Screening (US)

Latest Developments

• Congress has mandated that 100% of all cargo to be placed on passenger aircraft be screened by August 2010
• TSA has developed the Certified Cargo Screening Programme (CCSP) as a supply chain security solution to meet the requirements of the law
  
• IATA Postion
  • IATA believes that so called "100%" solutions" rarely achieve their goals. Rather they divert resources to part of a problem rather than the whole problem
  • IATA supports the CCSP and encourages all participants in the supply chain to join the CCSP
  • IATA has developed a companion program to CCSP called "Secure Freight" to spread this concept globally
