Dick. The tower controllers have the screens for the TASWAM but not the training to be able to use them. So centre can use it for separation but for the handover to the towers at around 45 miles traffic has to be at procedural spacing. I have heard that there have been issues with its accuracy preventing its use for terminal separation. I have no idea whether that is true or not, just what I heard.
