Qantas are doing it already with many “Mayday auto lands.”
Umm, perhaps you missed it, but a CAT III ILS was commissioned on RWY 21 at Perth about four years ago. Our CAT IIIB minima for Perth were DH = 0 and RVR = 75 m (all zones) for the Airbus A330/A350. The problem now is that some operators don't have aircraft and/or crews that are appropriately certified/qualified. More accurate forecasting would obviously help too, so that aircraft might actually be carrying the necessary alternate fuel in the event of fog.
