Good link warped factor, and although it says that ATC no longer become responsible for standard separation I would not like to be the one that doesn't give any vectors and then have a nasty due to some problem in executing the RA's. If the blips are going to merge and a resolution reported by any pilot says that standard 1000' or 2000' isn't going to be maintained then I WILL issue vectors. I'd like to see any ATCO that can morally argue against that, after all we are providing a SAFE, orderly and then expeditious service.
ATCO's are not required to separate an aircraft undertaking an RA manouevre from other aircraft. Traffic information and a requirement to report resuming cleared level are all that it required. We are providing a safe service to the extent we are allowed. If aircraft are going to make RA manouevres when there is no danger, then the system is taking the situation out of our hands until that aircraft resumes its clearance.
