Caveats

The document has not been reviewed for its continued currency since publication.

A number of the other WIS referenced (e.g. WIS 4-32-04; WIS 4-32-06; WIS 4-32-07) have been withdrawn.

One or more ‘Common Editorial Caveats’ apply – see ‘WIS & IGN Library / Navigation & Caveats’ for details.

Based on the Standards Board’s enquiries of stakeholders (Autumn 2021) the consensus view is that the existing document is likely to require updating. The Board has therefore initiated a review of its continuing relevance and currency.
