What about Article 49 (7)

My italics.

The relevant minima have not been notified as there is no published approach. So minima have to be calculated "by reference to the notified method for calculating aerodrome operating minima"

I'm guessing that is PANS-OPS. So sure you can do an instrument letdown in class g where no published IAP exists, but it has to be designed to the standards set out in PANS-OPS. Does anybody do this?
