Just found the following on the UK CAA website:

EEGs at initial Class 1 – no longer required and ‘long-term exemption’ issued
The UK ceased requiring electroencephalograms (EEGs, the test of electrical brain activity) for initial Class 1 applicants in October last year. The LSST(M) has now agreed with the UK’s position and the LST has accepted the decision as a ‘long-term exemption’. This means that the LST expect that the JAR will be formally changed in the future, although a consultation process, known as discussion of a ‘Notice of Proposed Amendment’ is still required. It is, however, very unlikely that a different decision will be reached after consultation.
“
Good news indeed, but how will this affect all those folks who were denied JAA certification solely on the grounds of abnormal EEGs?
Any idea when finalized rules on this are to be expected?
