Why would an AIC nullify a legal document?

The AIC to which you refer is dated 2004 and contains references to the ANO, the Rules of the Air are no longer contained within the ANO.

SERA.6001 is the new reference document and correct to 16 May 2017.
Class D. IFR and VFR flights are permitted and all flights are provided with air traffic control service.....Continuous air-ground voice communications are required for all flights and a speed limitation of 250 kts IAS applies to all flights below 3 050 m (10 000 ft) AMSL, except where approved by the competent authority for aircraft types, which for technical or safety reasons, cannot maintain this speed.

To my knowledge the competent authority, the CAA, have not granted any exemptions and why would they?
