It's been a while, but I'm fairly sure all you have to do is sit the Air Law exam.

@altflaps - hehe, but oh dear!
envoy604 - thanks mate, is that a JAA concession thing - i found an old website which non-specifically said that you had to do a few groundschools (internet done, open book) plus an IR test in a twin prop (no fair - i fly jets!) - it did say that the aussie caa took it on a case by case basis...
