I received the following from Bob Follett, I think this effectively solves the
UK's problem with the amendment issue. All it appears to need is the number
changed in the CD from 1539-1 to 1539-2. I have not discussed this with the
UK panel but I dont think they will mind having the discussion in a wider
public.
