Perhaps the letter is regional? Based on perception of legal liability in particular countries? I would like to see this letter as well.

I doubt the doctrine will be dropped they just won't have a formal dedicated meeting part about it anymore. Makes sense really considering the litigous climate they now find themselves in.

Yes but if there is no specific rule against it, it essentially becomes a conscience matter/
It only becomes a personal conscience matter without penalties issued when the GB says so.
To date that hasn't occurred, not even discreetly channeled down to elders or CO's. via a formal letter.
The GB members are still running the show , regional happenings are less concerning.

FYI around six years ago, there was a move away from renewing the documents every year to every four years
There is no longer a need to renew our Advance Decision document on a yearly basis, however, we recommend that publishers renew their document at least every four years and, of course, publishers may for various reasons need to update/renew theirs at any time.

When I first came 'in' no one told me that the BD was only started when it was... hm funny that.. if I had known its time origins I would have looked very hard at it. But then there is a whole lot about early days wt I was never told butwhich has come out since especially from sites like this one. Three cheers for the internet!
