Submitting a method
Additions and amendments to permitted methods normally take effect from 1st August and any applications to change anything need to be received by the L&E Secretary by the end of February. If you wish to apply for approval of any agreement not currently permitted you should send your application by email to heather@ebu.co.uk. You should include a logical defence to any agreement and indicate how it is to be shown on the system card. The Committee tend to look more favourably on applications that are not especially difficult to defend against.
