You're partially correct - the bolleaux of 'CR' before being considered a 'QSP' for PPL purposes was changed over a year ago.
By me - with some supportive comments from HQ CFS - after liaison with the CAA.
For FW pilots who have just been awarded their wings, all you need is:
1. JAA Class 2 medical certificate.
2. Pass Air Law&Op Procs, Human Perf. and Comms (PPL).
3. Become current on a SEP Class aeroplane.
4. Pass the PPL Skill Test (you will be credited the navigation section).
5. Fill out forms and pay money to CAA.
