Thanx for the input .... I'm fully aware of the differences from the ICAO recommendations and practices applied throughout the world which in turn causes a lot of headaches not just to us controllers but to the pilots even more i would say....
I agree with Lurking123's remark - this could be another one of those multi page threads ... and the bottom line again is a " non-standard " regulations or better "state sovereignity" ....

In the case i mentioned the aircraft was in Class E airspace ( as defined by ICAO Airspace Classification) and it was bellow MSA and Minimum Radar Vectoring altitude . Although our AIP states that use of Radar in special casses may be applied as the sole mean of information, but does not in any case relief the VFR pilot from its responsibility in regard to VFR Flight Rules .

So the real "issue" of our debate was : Is the use of the word "Identified" for such VFR flight pure "sacrillege" ?
