Must carry 20 mins extra fuel

BOAC - Just to add to the debate (or fuel ( ) to the fire!

The AIC (which is advisory, and not regulatory in nature) doesn't quite say that. It states that on receipt of an ATC advisory MSG "expect no delay" one can expect to spend 20 mins in the hold, it doesn't state you must carry 20 mins extra fuel into these airports.
