The government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region announced Thursday Hong Kong and Canada have signed an agreement on aircraft maintenance in Montreal.

Under the agreement, aircraft maintenance organizations in Hong Kong can provide maintenance service to aircraft registered in Canada without the need for additional approval from the Canadian government and in turn, the Canadian side can provide maintenance service to Hong Kong aircraft under the same condition.

The Memorandum of Understanding known as "Technical Arrangement on Aircraft Maintenance" allows the two sides to maximize the utilization of aircraft maintenance resources, an expansion of the memorandum signed in Hong Kong by both parties on Dec. 5, 2005.
