Small corrections These mainly consist of Temporary and Preliminary Notices (also called T and P notices) and Navigational warnings (nav warnings) The procedure for small corrections is as follows: 1. Sections II and III (See above) are detached from the NM and file. These give a list of T and P notices and Nav warnings still in force.

2. Charts on board and in use in the present voyage are corrected for these notices. The correction is made in pencil. This is because these notices are transient and will change or vanish. 3. While on the passage, other T, P notices and Nav Warnings may be received on Navtex, VHF etc. Charts in use will be corrected for these as the information comes in.
