  • The Netherlands
    Military doctrine comprises fundamental principles which armed forces use to direct their actions. Over the past few years, the need for an integrated defence doctrine has increased. In its fi nal report in April 2002, for example, the advisory committee on the introduction of a joint high commander stated that joint operations were fast becoming the norm and that close, internal cooperation in such operations was so vital that an overarching doctrine was required. The Netherlands Defence Doctrine (NDD) serves as a ‘doctrinal basis’ from which various doctrine publications, for instance for the individual Services, will be drawn and developed. In order to meet this recognised need, it was proposed that doctrine be developed for all the main tasks of the Defence Ministry, using the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) doctrine as a basis. This NDD fi lls the gap between Service-specifi c doctrine and defence policy. Netherlands DefenceDoctrine The usual procedure is that Service doctrine is drawn from national Netherlands defence doctrine. The situation in the Netherlands has until now been different. There was no defence doctrine, but the Services had Defence nonetheless developed their own doctrine. Because of this situation, a signifi cant part of the contents of the NDD has been taken from the Doctrine existing doctrine publications of the various Services, underpinned by a strategic foundation from current policy documents from the Ministry of Defence. The distinction between the policy documents and the various doctrine publications lies particularly in the fact that the policy documents determine the ambitions and the capabilities of the armed forces and the doctrine publications provide guidance for the conduct of military operations.

    E 4 ALBERT EMBANKMENT LONDON SE1 7SR Telephone: +44 (0)20 7735 7611 Fax: +44 (0)20 7587 3210 COMSAR.1/Circ.50/Rev.3 13 January 2012 DISTRESS PRIORITY COMMUNICATIONS FOR RCCs FROM SHORE-TO-SHIP VIA INMARSAT 1 The Secretariat in consultation with Inmarsat, has updated the information on Rescue Coordination Centres (RCCs) associated with Inmarsat Land Earth Stations (LESs). 2 Some RCCs have established arrangements whereby they are able to use the distress priority when sending certain messages from shore-to-ship via the Inmarsat network. The method of achieving this varies depending on the nature of the facilities available at both an LES and an RCC. Inmarsat believes that such arrangements can contribute significantly to the efficiency and effectiveness of search and rescue operations. 3 In order for an RCC to make use of the distress priority in the shore-to-ship direction, it is necessary for that RCC to establish a prior arrangement with the LES to set up the necessary traffic routeing arrangements. To enable this arrangement to be made, the RCC should contact the LES via the Operations Coordinator for that LES, whose details are contained in COMSAR.1/Circ.53/Rev.1 or a later revision of that circular. The LES will advise the RCC on the specific procedures to be used to make use of the distress priority in the shore-to-ship direction via that LES. To provide for priority access to the relevant LES an RCC may make arrangements such as: .1 two-stage voice dialling; or .2 installing a private leased line or some other system giving direct access to the LES network, where the required vessel number can be dialled and priority for space segment attached; or .3 other suitable arrangements similar to those outlined above.
