Fridays 17^th news  

On 15 March 2023, the JFSC issued a confusing update to its appendix D2

On 15 March 2023, the JFSC amended their appendix D2 country list. As part of this process, the JFSC provided three versions as follows:-

1. 1 x Final version D2 pdf [1]. https://www.jerseyfsc.org/media/6493/appendix-d2-pdf.pdf
2. 1 x Final version D2 excel [2]. https://www.jerseyfsc.org/media/6490/appendix-d2-excel-sheet.xlsx
3. 1 x Track change version D2 pdf [3] https://www.jerseyfsc.org/media/6495/appendix-d2-amendments.pdf

Following an inspection of the x3 documents, there are discrepancies between the:-

4. Final version documents  [1+2 above] and
5. Track change version [3 above]

Comsure is concerned that the final D2s are wrong – and Comsure's explanation is below.

The table below [fig.1] highlights each issue, and a summary is here:-.

6. Issues 1 and 2
7. Tonga and the Democratic Republic of Congo [Congo] have been on D2 since February 2022.
8. However, the JFSC, in their March update, say the inclusion was on 15 March 2023.
9. Issues 3, 4 and 5 impact the final D2 pdf and excel.
10. The final D2 does not show Saint Maarten, Palestine and Mongolia  
11. However, the x3 countries have sources listed as active in the track change version
12. The active sources indicate that the final D2 list is incorrect

The above findings above are also summarised here in FIG1
