Response Text

The action we are currently taking is that we are in discussions
with the members of the Aviation Fuels Committee, as to some
suitable wording to be placed in the specifications. Any additions
to the specification must be agreed by the AFC members in full, but
the executive committee is where the initial work is done and
initial decisions are taken.
