Hi WWW - I would not say that UK ATCOs are asked to go beyond the ICAO requirements because, in addition to the procedures for the class of airspace, the requirement is to prevent collisions. I understand your reference to "look(ing) like class C rules" though, hence my earlier point about prompt derestriction and use of, for example, a safe one or two miles only (e.g.diverging with no WT consideration) plus appropriate traffic information. And it's not separation!

Cheers
