Hi
To allay your fears about these rulings why not contact the BSA
british spearfishing association - Contacts, BUSA
CMAS - Pêche or CMAS
CMAS - Pêche.
I would be very surprised if they did not already know about it and indeed have it in hand. Cannot see something so potentially damaging to the Europewide spearos going through without their knowledge and involvement.
