With regard to the above recommendations arising out of the Santa Regina Tory Channel Entrance incident we intend to implement the safety recommendations 113/05 & 114/05 using the following methods:
We will re enforce our BRM techniques by sending all deck officers including trainees through a refresher BRM course, this has already commenced with a course in November another is programmed for the beginning of March and we would hopefully have all officers refreshed so to speak by the end of 2006.
With regard to bridge equipment training, we are making the use of retro fitted bridge equipment a specific item in our type rating competency checklist and will make the demonstration of the use of such equipment a specific item in our internal audit procedures.
