atco-matic,

Not sure it's quite as clear cut as that. There will ALWAYS be the requirement for the D1s as they have to open sectors. It is also preferable that some of these are west enders to relieve those that have been on all night-after all thay would be the first to complain if they were never getting a relief or extra staff to split. The number of D1s is no different to what we have now as far as I can see.

What it does do is account for most of the staff who will not be working a 6 on 4 off cycle and so the vast majority of the rest of the staff will be doing just that.

And with most of the Watch doing 6-on and 4-off, most of the Watch will not be able to do any AAVAs

zygote:

Not quite sure how you figure that. Surely if more people have 4 days off there is more scope for more attendance during those 4 days.

Don't forget the new 'rolling 8 hour' AAVA where you can volunteer for any period of 8 hours during the day to suit you or the ORO.

By the way, I hope that NONE of the people who voted NO to the early start are volunteering for AAVAs. If you don't want to get up 30mins earlier, why should you want to come in for any more days than you have to??? Of course... £500+...

Not sure it'll work quite like that. I think "we" still volunteer the days we can do extra and THEY choose the 8 hour shift to fit in with their needs.
