AirTravel Organisers Licensing ATOL is a United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority CAA scheme to protect people who have purchased package holiday s and flights from a member tour operator . The majority of UK tour operators are required to hold an ATOL licence, without which they may not legally sell airtravel. ATOL licenced firms will have had their business practices inspected by the CAA. An ATOL licensed tour operator must also obtain insurance Bond finance bonds from the CAA. The aim of this is to provide refunds to travellers affected by any event which causes the airline to be unable to provide travel for its customers, and to arrange for flights in addition to accommodation and other items which may be included in a package holiday to return home those who are still abroad at this time. History In the 1960s, voluntary organisations such as the Association of British Travel Agents ABTA provided a degree of financial protection for air travellers. In 1970, the Federation of Tour Operators FTO then the Tour Operators Study Group introduced a bonding scheme whereby their members had to obtain Bond finance bonds to the value of 5 of their annual revenue turnover . In 1972, the ABTA followed suit. Legal requirement The Civil Aviation Act 1971 established the Civil Aviation Authority United Kingdom CAA . Covered under this act was the creation of the original ATOL Regulations. These mandated that all travel organisers, those tour operators whose primary mode of transport was air but not airlines themselves , must hold a licence. These regulations came into effect in 1973. Early practice In August 1974, the Court Line group collapsed. It was the second largest tour operator at the time and its subsidiaries included Clarksons Travel Group Clarkson Holidays .

for the US political party Socialist Organizer unreferenced date October 2007 Socialist Organiser was a weekly socialist newspaper circulated in the Labour Party UK Labour Party . The newspaper was founded in 1979 by the Socialist Campaign for a Labour Victory, later renamed the Socialist Organiser Alliance . The newspaper was originally a vehicle for united work between the International Communist League I CL , the Workers Socialist League who merged with the ICL to become a new WSL , Workers Power UK Workers Power and independent leftists, such as Ken Livingstone . Some independent Labour leftists split from the paper when it opposed the tactic of raising rates to offset cuts to local government services. In the mid 1980s, the paper was sued by the Workers Revolutionary Party UK Workers Revolutionary Party over claims they repeated that the WRP was partially funded by money from the Libyan and Iraqi governments, but the WRP abandoned the action. The newspaper gradually became more identified with the new WSL. This process was completed when the ICL WSL fusion broke, as Socialist Organiser re evaluated many of its international policies and developed its own distinctive third camp position. As Socialist Organiser lost ground as a broad vehicle of left unity in the Labour Party, Sean Matgamna s supporters from the former ICL began to work entirely through the Socialist Organiser Alliance. Socialist Organiser was denied the right to register with the Labour Party in 1990, but this had little practical effect and it continued to be published until the mid 1990s, when the Alliance for Workers Liberty and International Socialist Group supported the launch of a new newspaper, Action for Solidarity .
