This sounds like good news - logic dictates it should work and approval for use in ET as well as PV will be helpful 😊

Do you know if this has been in use in the UK or EU? Thanks. Katie

I think there has been approval for use in PV in the EU. Presumably any future approval for ET will have to be granted separately in EU and UK 😡
