Reporting Programme

What is the basis for an independent, voluntary,
confidential reporting system in the UK?
•
ICAO Annex 13 - Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation
recommends that Member States put in place a voluntary, non-punitive
incident reporting system that protects information sources, to complement
a mandatory incident reporting scheme.
(Annex 13; Para 8.2 & 8.3).
•
EU Directive 2003/42/EC Article 9 - Voluntary Reporting (reflected in
Article 142 of The Air Navigation Order [UK]) establishes the conditions
for a voluntary reporting system that a member state elects to put in place.
•
Civil Aviation Publication CAP 784 – State Safety Programme for the
United Kingdom published in February 2009 meets the ICAO requirement
for Contracting States to produce an SSP. Chapter 5; Para 2.5.3 states
that CHIRP fulfils the role of a voluntary safety reporting scheme for the
UK as recommended by ICAO Annex 13.

Immunity in the UK
• Aeronautical Information Circular – 47(2001) provides limited regulatory
immunity against third-party reports. Same as MOR system. (Statement
by Chairman CAA), but not against gross negligence / wilful acts
• Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 – ‘Whistleblowers Act’ provides legal
immunity against “Whistle-blowing” in cases where public safety is
concerned, yet to be tested legally in Air Transport.
• However, the risk of exposure is minimised through CHIRP processes.
Contact details are not retained – no audit path back to reporter.
