  8. The Issue of the Jurisdiction of the State of Landing The Queen v. Remy Martins Duggan The State of Landing does not have jurisdiction on an offence which neither took place in its territory, nor on board an aircraft registered in its State. Project title (Insert, Header & Footer)

  9. Discussion at the Legal Committee Jurisdiction • The State of registry jurisdiction, already existing under Tokyo, should be preserved. • Similarly, territorial jurisdiction of a State, which was well recognized in international law, was easily supported. • There was a general sentiment that the inclusion and exercise of the State of landing and State of the operator jurisdictions would assist to curb unruly behaviour on board aircraft. • Also, further deliberation was needed on the question whether to have mandatory and optional jurisdictions.
