It’s the first time that the Anglo French Accident Technical Group has met online and there were 20 people attending from the UK, France, the Channel Islands, Belgium and Ireland.
These biannual meetings are chaired jointly by France and the UK. As well as search and rescue, salvage, pollution and vessel traffic management, the group also looks after the Anglo-French Joint Maritime Contingency Plan for the English Channel (MANCHEPLAN), which establishes policies and procedures for incident control and management.
