TellThemWhatYouThink doesn't work very well anymore

This site was set up in 2008, to help people find Government consultations more easily, and to show that it could be done: quickly and easily. The site has never been funded as such, and has relied on volunteers for maintenance and support. It hasn't had much maintenance recently and this shows: some consultations can't be found and some functions don't work as they should. We are currently seeking funding for a new version of TellThemWhatYouThink.

In the meantime, you can search a limited number of departments for open consultations at the Directgov Consultation Finder.

Traffic Separation Schemes - Application of Rule 10 and Navigation in the Dover Strait

Consultation published by The Maritime and Coastguard Agency View original »

The proposed Marine Guidance Note has been produced to replace existing MGNs 128 (Navigation in the Dover Strait) and 200 (Observance of Traffic Separation Schemes).

The purpose of this MGN is to remind mariners of the International Regulations  for Preventing Collisions at Sea 1972 as amended, governing the conduct of all vessels in and near Traffic Separation Schemes (TSSs) which have been adopted by the IMO.

This notice draws attention to mariners on the existing mandatory reporting regime and the recommendations with navigating through and across the Dover Strait.

The draft notice affects and will be for the attention of all Ship owners, Masters, Ships’ Officers, Fishermen, Recreational Sailors / Divers and all concerned with the navigation of Seagoing vessels.
