out under clause 1 may be increased by the duration of the split-duty rest period.
       2.2For subclause 2.1, the remaining length of the FDP resumed at the time the split‑duty rest period ends (the resumption time) must not be greater than the FDP limit that would apply under Table 1.1 to an FCM who commenced a new FDP at the resumption time.
       2.3After an FDP mentioned in subclause 2.1, the duration of the split-duty rest period may be reduced by 50% in determining the subsequent off-duty period under subclause 5.1 or cumulative duty time under clause 7.
       2.4Subject to subclause 2.6, if an FDP contains 1 or 2 split-duty rest periods, each of at least 2 consecutive hours with access to suitable resting accommodation, the maximum FDP worked out under clause 1 may be increased by half the duration of the split-duty rest period or periods up to a total of 2 hours.
       2.5The requirements of subclause 5.1 are taken to be met if an FDP contains a split‑duty rest period with access to suitable sleeping accommodation, and the split-duty rest period is:
(a) of at least 10 consecutive hours, plus the number of hours difference in local time between the location where the FDP commenced and the location where the split-duty rest period is undertaken; and
(b) undertaken over a local night.
       2.6An FDP that includes a split-duty rest period must not exceed 16 hours.
Note   For any particular FCM, other provisions of this CAO may have the effect of reducing maximum FDP limits under this Appendix (see, for example, subsections 14 and 15 of this CAO).

(a) an AOC holder has urgent operations procedures in the operations manual; and
(b) an operation is deemed to be urgent in accordance with the manual;
