MAA Regulatory Article 1210

The request is waiting for clarification. If you are James Jones, please sign in to send a follow up message.

Dear Ministry of Defence,

MAA Regulatory Article 1210 makes it clear that,

(1) ADHs are legally accountable for the safe operation of systems in their AoR and for ensuring that RtL for 1st, 2nd and 3rd parties, which includes the general public, are both ALARP and Tolerable.

(2) The validity of an ALARP argument can only be decided definitively by the courts, in the event of an accident.

Can you advise me as to which courts the latter refers. Clearly, a Service Inquiry can not be considered as a court.

Yours faithfully,

James Jones

Dear DSA-Enquiries (MULTIUSER),

With reference to the 2012 Moray Firth collision, can you advise me in which court the ALARP argument was validated?

I note that at para 1.4.6.605(b)(3) of the SI report the panel state that the No 1 Group mitigation was not ALARP. A point that the Convening Authority (DG MAA) appears to reject.

Yours sincerely,

James Jones

Dear DSA-Enquiries (MULTIUSER),

Many thanks for your reply.

For the avoidance of any doubt I was not seeking an opinion, just factual information.

From your answer I have to assume that in the case that I mentioned the ALARP statement was not validated in a court of law, as per RA1210. Validation would have involved the 2* Duty Holder and I am sure his involvement would have been documented.

Yours sincerely,

James Jones
